 You know even if you're just staying in the local area where you are and You're taking that three-day or four-day holiday. You know, it's a whole different mindset when we go into the winter holidays Thanksgiving, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah. I mean, you know, we're just loaded down with festivities and family and friends and food and travel and you know, sometimes we don't really Stop and think how are we getting there? How much is it gonna cost? You know, what is my frame of mind and my mentally, physically, emotionally, financially prepared for the holidays? And if you're driving particularly, you know, do I have snow tires where I'm going? Do I have, you know, a map laid out where gas stations are or hotels as you mentioned? And there's a great program that the military has that can help you plan And so I kind of want to talk about in this first segment about trips So let's talk about trips. For all military, I believe it's on, you know, your your army knowledge online, your Navy knowledge online, your Air Force knowledge online For us in the Navy at www.incao.navy.mail with your cat card. When you log in Somewhere there on the front page, it may even be in the center right now or on the left You'll see the big trips and travel planning And trips is a program about going on a trip and it's got a great checklist for you as an individual For you as a supervisor to sit down with your sailors and start talking about, you know, how do I go on my Travel? What is the trip report say? What does the trip form remind me of? And I think one of the best, you know, parts of trip That I use and I still use today Is the checklist for driving, you know, when you open up the form and it's got that checklist for your car You know, your tires, your air pressure, your oil, your gas, your windshield wipers. Boy, if your tires aren't fit for the type of travel, whether it's off-road or snow or rain High desert. Many people just like you are trying to get home for the holidays And so being very, very vigilant on the road is never more critical than it is during the holiday season So use your trips report. It's great. It can give you an idea of the distance you should travel and When you should get a hotel. So I urge everybody just go to NKO supervisors Go to NKO, print out the trips checklist Go over it with your sailors at quarters and just talk about it Even if you don't do the individual planning Just talk about the existence of the trips report being there and get your sailors up online to look at it because It really can have just one moment, just one moment in that trips report that can save your sailors life on the road Don't wait for things to happen to you. Make them happen for you
