WEBVTT 00:00.340 --> 00:01.450 Yeah . Mhm . 00:07.840 --> 00:10.750 Mhm . Mhm . Mhm . 00:18.140 --> 00:22.030 Mhm mm . As the world's 00:22.030 --> 00:24.141 premier naval expeditionary force and 00:24.141 --> 00:26.197 readiness , the United States Marine 00:26.197 --> 00:28.363 Corps is our nation's certain force of 00:28.363 --> 00:30.530 choice in an uncertain world , trained 00:30.530 --> 00:32.752 and equipped to execute missions across 00:32.752 --> 00:34.863 the full range of military operations 00:34.863 --> 00:36.808 forward postured with the fleet to 00:36.808 --> 00:38.863 deter conflict and respond to crisis 00:38.863 --> 00:40.974 anytime anywhere . The fleet , Marine 00:40.974 --> 00:43.086 force , acting as an extension of the 00:43.086 --> 00:45.252 fleet will be the first on the scene . 00:45.252 --> 00:47.086 First to help first to contain a 00:47.086 --> 00:49.419 brewing crisis and if required to do so . 00:49.419 --> 00:51.363 First to fight logistics , command 00:51.363 --> 00:53.419 plays a key role in their ability to 00:53.740 --> 00:56.220 operationally maneuver within their 00:56.220 --> 00:58.370 battle space . We are the connective 00:58.380 --> 01:00.436 tissue , not at the tactical level , 01:00.436 --> 01:02.658 but at the operational level , plugging 01:02.658 --> 01:04.769 in between the strategic and tactical 01:04.769 --> 01:06.991 level , enabling them to maneuver their 01:06.991 --> 01:10.350 forces as freely as possible within the 01:10.350 --> 01:12.360 theater . Mhm . 01:15.640 --> 01:19.410 Yeah . From 01:19.410 --> 01:21.730 depot level maintenance to strategic 01:21.730 --> 01:23.730 prepositioning support , Supply and 01:23.730 --> 01:25.520 distribution law . Com works to 01:25.520 --> 01:27.830 influence , coordinate and execute 01:27.830 --> 01:30.052 strategies that support the sustainment 01:30.052 --> 01:32.219 of Marine Corps ground weapons systems 01:32.219 --> 01:34.163 throughout the various phases of a 01:34.163 --> 01:37.410 weapon systems life cycle . Yeah , We 01:37.410 --> 01:40.090 provide that communication between the 01:40.090 --> 01:42.257 acquisition community and the fleet as 01:42.257 --> 01:44.034 well , bringing the sustainment 01:44.034 --> 01:46.100 expertise of law come in support of 01:46.100 --> 01:49.590 those weapons system . Because 90% of 01:49.590 --> 01:52.710 the decisions about sustainment is made 01:52.720 --> 01:54.831 up front and early in the acquisition 01:54.831 --> 01:56.980 process with the sustained global 01:56.980 --> 01:58.980 presence in nearly every theater of 01:58.980 --> 02:00.980 operations . Marine Corps Logistics 02:00.980 --> 02:03.313 Command supports the Fleet Marine Force , 02:03.313 --> 02:05.258 enabling Joint Force partnership , 02:05.258 --> 02:07.202 persistence and forward operations 02:07.202 --> 02:09.313 wherever and whenever they are called 02:09.313 --> 02:11.790 to do so . Headquartered in Albany 02:11.790 --> 02:13.623 Georgia . Marine Corps Logistics 02:13.623 --> 02:15.290 Command is comprised of three 02:15.290 --> 02:17.410 subordinate commands . Marine Depot 02:17.410 --> 02:19.330 Maintenance Command , Marine for 02:19.330 --> 02:21.380 storage Command and blunt Island 02:21.380 --> 02:24.030 Command . Operationally aligned to 02:24.030 --> 02:26.141 deputy commandant , installations and 02:26.141 --> 02:28.200 logistics . The command maintains 02:28.210 --> 02:30.970 repairs , delivers and prepositions 02:30.970 --> 02:33.620 critical material equipment and support 02:33.620 --> 02:35.620 to the marines where they need it . 02:35.620 --> 02:38.490 Most Logistics command supports the FMF 02:38.490 --> 02:40.900 and you think of the FMF as 180,000 02:40.910 --> 02:43.920 people globally dispersed and they need 02:43.920 --> 02:46.142 a lot of equipment . If you're a marine 02:46.142 --> 02:49.550 and you go somewhere in a crisis , the 02:49.550 --> 02:51.661 equipment that you're going to use is 02:51.661 --> 02:53.717 going to come off a ship or out of a 02:53.717 --> 02:55.828 cave or out of a warehouse because of 02:55.828 --> 02:58.900 operational level logistics co located 02:58.900 --> 03:00.820 with the operating forces at home 03:00.820 --> 03:03.042 stations around the world , with access 03:03.042 --> 03:05.264 to elite global supply chain networks . 03:05.264 --> 03:07.431 Marine Corps Logistics Command manages 03:07.431 --> 03:09.209 the consolidated inventories of 03:09.209 --> 03:11.320 individual combat equipment needed to 03:11.320 --> 03:13.542 provide every marine the equipment they 03:13.542 --> 03:15.542 require for training and for combat 03:15.542 --> 03:18.620 operations globally . We have Nearly 03:18.620 --> 03:22.110 57th site in 21 geographic locations 03:22.120 --> 03:24.900 all over the world in a 24 hour period . 03:24.910 --> 03:27.132 There's only like four hours that we're 03:27.132 --> 03:29.132 actually not servicing the marine , 03:29.132 --> 03:31.790 anything from enhanced combat helmets , 03:31.800 --> 03:34.240 to the plate carriers , to the sappy 03:34.240 --> 03:36.990 plates , to water reserves , sleeping 03:36.990 --> 03:39.210 bags , anything that that unit will be 03:39.210 --> 03:41.266 eating . We can provide for them and 03:41.266 --> 03:44.820 any of the IS worldwide on land and at 03:44.820 --> 03:46.876 sea . Marine Corps Logistics Command 03:46.876 --> 03:48.764 stores , equipment for training , 03:48.764 --> 03:50.740 crisis response , and major combat 03:50.740 --> 03:52.890 operations around the world . Whether 03:52.890 --> 03:54.723 aboard the ships of the maritime 03:54.723 --> 03:56.946 preposition fleet , inside the caves of 03:56.946 --> 03:59.168 the Marine Corps prepositioning program 03:59.168 --> 04:01.112 in Norway or on the lot of the new 04:01.112 --> 04:03.330 augmentation program in kuwait . So we 04:03.330 --> 04:05.330 have a significant impact on Marine 04:05.330 --> 04:07.497 Corps operations around the globe with 04:07.497 --> 04:09.608 the maritime prepositioning program . 04:09.608 --> 04:11.830 Uh That program consists of three large 04:11.830 --> 04:13.886 branches to assure locations and our 04:13.886 --> 04:15.800 float piece and their significant 04:15.810 --> 04:17.510 because they impact tactical 04:17.520 --> 04:19.576 operational strategic level missions 04:19.576 --> 04:21.742 required for that equipment around the 04:21.742 --> 04:25.590 globe . When a ship comes in and it 04:25.600 --> 04:27.711 offloads , every single piece of gear 04:27.711 --> 04:29.933 gets taken off that ship and everything 04:29.933 --> 04:32.156 needs to be inspected , inventory , the 04:32.156 --> 04:34.100 maintenance is done . We , when we 04:34.100 --> 04:36.100 downloaded MPF ship , we're talking 04:36.100 --> 04:38.322 anywhere from 15,000 or 20,000 assets . 04:38.322 --> 04:40.433 And we have a team of of , you know , 04:40.433 --> 04:42.489 contracted workforce , civilian work 04:42.489 --> 04:44.433 force and marines that turned that 04:44.433 --> 04:46.544 equipment around in less than 90 days 04:46.544 --> 04:48.767 to make sure it's , you know , properly 04:48.767 --> 04:50.711 maintained , its ready and it's uh 04:50.711 --> 04:52.378 ready to support the fight by 04:52.378 --> 04:54.600 maintaining readiness of the MPF assets 04:54.600 --> 04:56.767 that are a sign of the ships . Uh This 04:56.767 --> 04:56.590 allows the madcap to deploy and support 04:56.590 --> 04:58.240 of crisis or contingency and 04:58.240 --> 05:00.296 immediately falling on a gear that's 05:00.296 --> 05:02.240 ready for for wartime operations . 05:02.240 --> 05:04.184 Marine Corps Logistics commands 19 05:04.184 --> 05:06.351 million square feet of organic storage 05:06.351 --> 05:08.407 space ensures this equipment ranging 05:08.407 --> 05:10.629 from crew served weapons , small arms , 05:10.629 --> 05:12.851 engineering equipment and communication 05:12.851 --> 05:15.018 assets to fully armored , combat ready 05:15.018 --> 05:17.129 vehicles are maintained and ready for 05:17.129 --> 05:19.184 use in times of crisis or conflict . 05:20.440 --> 05:22.273 We're basically a maths worth of 05:22.273 --> 05:24.770 equipment here . So about 25% of the 05:24.770 --> 05:26.826 Marine Corps is inventory $7 billion 05:26.826 --> 05:29.410 dollars of assets here . So a pretty 05:29.410 --> 05:31.600 large breath of uh , what we have to 05:31.600 --> 05:33.930 account for and take care of . So our 05:33.930 --> 05:37.830 mission is to receive , store and issue 05:37.840 --> 05:39.490 military equipment and our 05:39.490 --> 05:42.540 responsibility of that is to maintain 05:42.550 --> 05:44.772 the equipment as it is when we get it . 05:44.772 --> 05:47.010 We prevent degradation if you will try 05:47.010 --> 05:48.899 to ensure that the serviceability 05:48.899 --> 05:51.380 remains high and that the gear is ready 05:51.380 --> 05:53.460 to do a poll at a moments notice the 05:53.460 --> 05:55.690 Marine Corps is counting on us to 05:55.700 --> 05:58.740 maintain a tremendous amount of assets 05:58.750 --> 06:02.660 ready to issue at any time . So 06:02.660 --> 06:05.530 just by storage capacity alone and all 06:05.530 --> 06:08.200 the security requirements that go into 06:08.210 --> 06:11.660 safeguarding and managing that volume 06:11.660 --> 06:13.771 of equipment , no one else the Marine 06:13.771 --> 06:17.650 Corps has that to capacity . Every 06:17.650 --> 06:19.920 asset is critical and it's always 06:19.920 --> 06:21.864 needed . Whether or not it's for a 06:21.864 --> 06:23.976 training session or whether or not is 06:23.976 --> 06:26.142 to go to war . So we always have to be 06:26.142 --> 06:28.309 in a ready state and we always have to 06:28.309 --> 06:30.650 be very flexible whenever and wherever 06:30.650 --> 06:32.872 the Marine Corps is on the move . Law . 06:32.872 --> 06:34.928 Com is there when it matters most to 06:34.928 --> 06:36.983 make sure the equipment and supplies 06:36.983 --> 06:39.150 needed by our core remains in sight on 06:39.150 --> 06:41.261 time and ready to execute on delivery 06:41.261 --> 06:43.206 With over 20 permanent and on call 06:43.206 --> 06:45.150 locations . Marine Corps Logistics 06:45.150 --> 06:47.261 Command Tracks equipment and supplies 06:47.261 --> 06:49.428 as they move through the Department of 06:49.428 --> 06:51.150 Defense Distribution Network , 06:51.150 --> 06:53.039 unclogging bottlenecks , managing 06:53.039 --> 06:55.094 traffic and making sure equipment is 06:55.094 --> 06:57.317 delivered to units in need at the right 06:57.317 --> 06:59.261 time in the right place . Prior to 06:59.261 --> 07:01.320 coming law come , I had no idea how 07:01.320 --> 07:03.720 valuable law . Com was to our successes . 07:03.720 --> 07:06.750 Organization as a service . When I 07:06.750 --> 07:09.280 think about logistics , I do think of 07:09.280 --> 07:11.450 law . Com in many facets . Whether 07:11.450 --> 07:13.506 you're talking about how we move the 07:13.510 --> 07:15.510 cargo through the pipeline , how we 07:15.510 --> 07:17.740 coordinate it , but more so how we're 07:17.740 --> 07:19.890 able to integrate , synchronized and 07:19.890 --> 07:22.110 create the synergy necessary to get 07:22.110 --> 07:24.820 that cargo downrange in a timely manner 07:24.820 --> 07:26.653 so that combatant commander have 07:26.653 --> 07:28.460 additional decision space 07:30.540 --> 07:32.762 from capacity management in transit and 07:32.762 --> 07:34.950 total asset visibility . Marine Corps 07:34.950 --> 07:37.117 Logistics Command provides the overall 07:37.117 --> 07:39.006 transportation and distribution , 07:39.006 --> 07:41.117 insight and control . Marines need to 07:41.117 --> 07:43.283 plan and execute their missions as the 07:43.283 --> 07:45.394 Air clearance authority and container 07:45.394 --> 07:47.450 manager for the Marine Corps . Log . 07:47.450 --> 07:49.117 Com carries out oversight and 07:49.117 --> 07:51.283 management to validate inventories and 07:51.283 --> 07:53.450 de conflict logistics requirements for 07:53.450 --> 07:55.561 high priority cargo movements . Mhm . 07:55.561 --> 07:57.339 Our job as distribution process 07:57.339 --> 07:59.506 managers here at the law come level is 07:59.506 --> 08:01.561 to ensure everything that the Marine 08:01.561 --> 08:03.728 Corps sends to those nodes is actually 08:03.728 --> 08:05.672 going through smoothly and without 08:05.672 --> 08:08.020 issue . Another arm that we have is our 08:08.020 --> 08:10.380 distribution process advocacy role . 08:10.390 --> 08:12.960 What we do is play senior distribution 08:12.960 --> 08:15.440 experts at strategic knows and what 08:15.440 --> 08:17.690 they do is ensure that our cargo is 08:17.690 --> 08:19.746 uploaded in a timely manner and move 08:19.746 --> 08:21.690 through the pipeline seamlessly to 08:21.690 --> 08:24.940 those combatants spaces . As the Marine 08:24.940 --> 08:26.662 Corps only organic depot level 08:26.662 --> 08:28.773 maintenance capability . Marine Corps 08:28.773 --> 08:30.829 Logistics Command repairs the coarse 08:30.829 --> 08:32.996 ground combat equipment to sustain the 08:32.996 --> 08:32.950 combat readiness of the operating 08:32.950 --> 08:36.720 forces . We repair equipment 08:36.730 --> 08:39.050 beyond the capability of the Organic 08:39.050 --> 08:41.610 Fleet , Marine Force and we do it in a 08:41.610 --> 08:44.220 manner which allows them to maintain a 08:44.230 --> 08:46.330 high state of readiness that allows 08:46.330 --> 08:48.700 them to fight and win our nation's wars 08:48.700 --> 08:52.160 against any pacing threat equipped with 08:52.160 --> 08:54.327 the state of the art depot maintenance 08:54.327 --> 08:56.549 capability . They provide the strategic 08:56.549 --> 08:58.716 advantage the court needs to rebuild , 08:58.716 --> 09:00.604 refurbished and modernised ground 09:00.604 --> 09:02.549 combat weapons systems , extending 09:02.549 --> 09:04.549 their lifespan and ensuring marines 09:04.549 --> 09:06.604 have reliable equipment to bring the 09:06.604 --> 09:08.771 fight and win . Number one reason that 09:08.771 --> 09:10.827 we implement new technologies in the 09:10.827 --> 09:12.827 depot is to increase the throughput 09:12.827 --> 09:14.771 through the depot every day that a 09:14.771 --> 09:16.938 piece of equipment is in maintenance , 09:16.938 --> 09:19.160 it's not in the fleet . So we wanted to 09:19.160 --> 09:21.327 reduce the repair cycle time , get the 09:21.327 --> 09:23.549 throughput through and get that vehicle 09:23.549 --> 09:25.827 back to the marine as fast as possible . 09:26.340 --> 09:28.062 We'll have lots of maintenance 09:28.062 --> 09:30.284 battalion's reach out to us . Well , we 09:30.284 --> 09:32.400 can't get this part or how are you 09:32.410 --> 09:34.577 handling this issue when you see it at 09:34.577 --> 09:36.521 the depot . Those are the types of 09:36.521 --> 09:38.632 maintenance solutions that we provide 09:38.632 --> 09:40.854 back to them and if they're not able to 09:40.854 --> 09:42.966 find the type of parts that they need 09:42.966 --> 09:42.860 or whether we need a three D . Print 09:42.860 --> 09:45.390 something or if we need to look at 09:45.390 --> 09:47.612 maybe fabricating something in house at 09:47.612 --> 09:49.612 our depot to ship to them to ensure 09:49.612 --> 09:51.779 that that need is met . That's what we 09:51.779 --> 09:53.946 do . We have the capability to work on 09:53.946 --> 09:56.168 400 different line items which range in 09:56.168 --> 09:58.590 scope from rifles to radios up to and 09:58.590 --> 10:00.757 including robots and heavy equipment . 10:00.940 --> 10:02.940 All the ground equipment that the 10:02.940 --> 10:05.107 Marine Corps possesses , the most part 10:05.107 --> 10:07.162 runs through our production plants . 10:07.162 --> 10:09.218 One of the unique things we have the 10:09.218 --> 10:11.440 ability to do . We can stop and turn on 10:11.440 --> 10:13.440 a dime and build what's needed when 10:13.440 --> 10:15.662 it's needed . More flexible . We can go 10:15.662 --> 10:17.607 outside the fence line and perform 10:17.607 --> 10:19.718 maintenance activities throughout the 10:19.718 --> 10:21.884 world when we've done that in the past 10:21.884 --> 10:24.107 and we can do it in the future . I want 10:24.107 --> 10:26.107 to have the best piece of equipment 10:26.107 --> 10:25.390 coming out of this depot that it 10:25.400 --> 10:27.600 possibly can , knowing that our 10:27.600 --> 10:29.780 equipment has zero question when it 10:29.780 --> 10:32.480 goes out knowing that it absolutely has 10:32.480 --> 10:34.960 that possibility to save a life no 10:34.960 --> 10:38.210 matter what happened to it every day , 10:38.470 --> 10:41.270 the Marines , civilians and contractors 10:41.270 --> 10:43.492 of Marine Corps Logistics Command go to 10:43.492 --> 10:45.437 work to ensure our Marine Corps is 10:45.437 --> 10:47.659 ready to respond to our nation's call . 10:47.659 --> 10:49.937 When you think about Logistics command , 10:49.937 --> 10:52.103 there is a range of responsibilities , 10:52.103 --> 10:54.214 there is a range of mission essential 10:54.214 --> 10:56.280 tasks that log com has to meet . And 10:56.280 --> 10:58.870 without the diversity of personnel , we 10:58.870 --> 11:00.592 wouldn't be able to meet those 11:00.592 --> 11:02.481 requirements to support the Fleet 11:02.481 --> 11:04.900 Marine Force . The workforce here is 11:04.900 --> 11:06.900 very special . This is where people 11:06.900 --> 11:10.510 really do things . This is where the 11:10.520 --> 11:13.570 deck plates are and people know how to 11:13.580 --> 11:16.290 do things , They know how to solve 11:16.300 --> 11:19.020 problems , they know how to work with 11:19.020 --> 11:21.242 each other . You have to be accountable 11:21.242 --> 11:23.650 and our workforce is extremely 11:23.660 --> 11:27.610 accountable logistics command , just 11:27.610 --> 11:29.666 like any other command in the Marine 11:29.666 --> 11:31.890 Corps personnel or the center of 11:31.890 --> 11:34.300 gravity . The commandant said it um 11:34.310 --> 11:36.460 it's no different here , right . The 11:36.470 --> 11:39.490 300 marines , we have 2400 civilians 11:39.490 --> 11:42.050 and 1800 contractors . It is absolutely 11:42.050 --> 11:43.828 a team effort . And without the 11:43.828 --> 11:45.828 personnel , Lacombe doesn't exist . 11:45.828 --> 11:48.460 It's just that simple Volcom is 11:48.460 --> 11:50.571 committed to Marine Corps readiness . 11:50.571 --> 11:52.571 It is this commitment that provides 11:52.571 --> 11:54.793 already efficient and controlled source 11:54.793 --> 11:57.016 of technical competence that guarantees 11:57.016 --> 11:59.238 the Marine Corps immediate combat power 11:59.238 --> 12:01.404 and protects our long term readiness . 12:01.404 --> 12:04.810 Viability quality is key . We have to 12:04.810 --> 12:06.921 ensure that not only what we're doing 12:06.921 --> 12:09.088 is the quality and the business in our 12:09.088 --> 12:11.020 operations are done in the most 12:11.020 --> 12:13.160 efficient and effective manner . But 12:13.160 --> 12:16.360 it's also when we hand the service over , 12:16.360 --> 12:18.416 when we hand the product over to the 12:18.416 --> 12:20.638 customer , are they too satisfied ? Are 12:20.638 --> 12:22.638 they getting what they expected and 12:22.638 --> 12:24.527 possibly even more than what they 12:24.527 --> 12:27.350 expected ? And when they do need us , 12:27.940 --> 12:29.773 we're ready because we're always 12:29.773 --> 12:31.718 managing our business , be able to 12:31.718 --> 12:33.884 provide what's needed when it's needed 12:33.884 --> 12:36.000 for the fight tonight .

A 13:03.611 --> 13:05.611 marine's life depends on it . And I 13:05.611 --> 13:07.833 hold that dear to my heart because it's 13:07.833 --> 13:10.056 true , that's essentially what it's all 13:10.056 --> 13:12.056 about , making sure that we provide 13:12.056 --> 13:14.222 exactly what the warfighter needs when 13:14.222 --> 13:16.389 they need it and that it works so that 13:16.389 --> 13:18.611 they're not worried about being able to 13:18.611 --> 13:18.360 have what they need to maintain and 13:18.360 --> 13:20.027 take the fight to the enemy . 13:20.640 --> 13:23.660 Yeah . 13:26.440 --> 13:29.460 All right , mm hmm .
