Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
Rear-Admiral Bernatchez, Colonel Wry and Colonel Jetly, thank you very much for giving us your testimony this afternoon. I also thank you for your service to our country. Through you, I would also like to thank the women and men serving under your command.
Colonel Jetly, congratulations on your pending retirement.
I want to take you back to conversations in previous rounds on the implications of serving in a combat role, either actively on the front lines of a kinetic environment or passively in a combat setting. We're seeing qualitatively and quantitatively different data out of that subset of members of the Canadian Forces and many other forces around the world.
Can you zoom in a bit and give us a bit more descriptive content on what you're seeing and hearing and how these data are being analyzed and compared to those of other settings that the women and men serve in?
