Thank you.
Let's talk retention and recruitment. It's no secret that we have a diminished armed forces, and with that there are consequences. It's no secret that recruitment has reached an all-time low and is at a critical level.
With regard to retention and recruitment, can you speak to how much work has been contracted out to civilians due to a shortage of enlisted personnel? With that, because the CAF is perhaps a less desirable career than it once was, can either of you elaborate on that?
