 Colonel Pete Moon, Brigade Commander, 1st Army Brigade Combat Team. So the dog-faced soldiers of the Raider Brigade Combat Team is currently deploying in support of U.S. Army Europe out to Germany, and our purpose is to assure our NATO allies and deter further aggression. So the brigade was recently deployed in the Korean Peninsula in support of U.S. Forces Korea where we train alongside our Republic of South Korea and Army partners and also do the same thing in terms of assurance, providing assurance while deterring aggression. The brigade maintained a high rate of readiness during that deployment and we carried it through during the transition period where we redeployed from Korea and reintegrated back into four stores. So we will continue to sustain that rate of readiness across the formation and as a result of that we were ready to assume this mission requirement to do the same type of thing in terms of assuring our allies and working with our partners and deterring further aggression. Extremely proud of our soldiers and families for all the things that our Raider Brigade Combat Team and family has done to get us here and I'm especially also very thankful for all the help from the four Stuart units as well as the entire community for helping us get us through this preparation for the deployment and I'm extremely grateful to be in this great team and I look forward to all the great things that our soldiers will be doing in Europe.
