Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Vice-Admiral, I just wanted to reiterate my thanks to you for being here and to all the other chiefs of various part of the forces.
The fact that I have no questions for you today is not to suggest that your comments at the beginning were not helpful or to suggest that any of the other observations and comments from other generals and admirals who have come before us haven't been helpful. It's actually been very educational for me, as a new person on this committee and in this file. I think we've kind of run the course on the issue of readiness, and in fact that we did so quite some time ago.
I appreciate your comments today.
Thank you.
