Thank you very much.
I would like to echo the thanks of my colleagues for the work the Canadian Armed Forces have done throughout this crisis. You are literally saving lives. I think I speak for all members of the committee when I say we are very grateful.
My first question is to Rear-Admiral Patterson, specifically about your role as commander of the health services group. I can well imagine that additional stresses and demands were put on the health services group during this period.
I wonder if you could talk a bit about how you were able to build resiliency and keep the members of your teams healthy, safe and well throughout this process.
