 The overall mission of Valiant Shield 14 is to allow Navy, Marine, U.S. Air Force, and Army units to train in the Joint Interoperability Concept and also in the Air Sea Battle Concept to refine our Joint Force in peacetime so that we can respond in the full range of military operations. I'm participating this year in Valiant Shield in a way that kind of dovetails nicely into the Air Sea Battle Concept with our EF-21 Expeditionary Force-21 Concept, and I'm looking forward to MAG-12 participating in more Valiant Shield exercises in the future because I think there's a great deal we can learn, I think there's a great deal we can demonstrate. And it's an ideal opportunity to get all the services together with opposition forces to refine our military capabilities, so I'm glad to have been able to participate in Valiant Shield 14 this year as the exercise director.
