... flooding at home right now, let alone whether it's volcanic eruptions, flooding, tsunamis within our area.

So to me, that's very much how do we support each other and how do we give readiness? So one of the big things I think a defense force gives you is the ability to react quickly with command and control to take a complex problem, make that simplified, and actually operationalize an effect.

So whether that's getting food or water to people, whether it's opening up ports and the likes, we have that ability.

But I'd also say that's not actually our key output.

We are here again because we are an army to be able to deliver effects, operational kinetic effects and lethal effects when required on operations.

So it's almost like an insurance policy that the government, whether they choose to use it or not, because of that skill set we have, you can utilize that in HADR, but that's not our raison d'être.

Yeah
