just thought
I’d stop by to
say hi and get
a quick clean-
up cut.
how’s
everyone
doing?
fine…
just fine,
andrew.
so how
long
you here
for,
son?
for a
month, sir.
then I’m
going back
to the
sandbox.
I see a parade is coming
through town. look at
those old military vehicles.
what keeps ‘em going?
what keeps ‘em
going is a lot
of
pmcs
…but
in small doses.
but does
pmcs
keep ‘em going for
this long…year
after year?
good question.
it takes more
than
pmcs
or preventive
maintenance
to keep ‘em
going…year
after year.
I’d
say
so.
for instance, our
equipment in iraq
is in rough shape,
even though we’ve
done our
pmcs
.
most of the army’s
equipment is going
through a refurbishment
process that’s
called
reset
.
in tech talk,
reset
is
a series of
actions…
…to restore a
unit to a combat-
ready status
for future
missions.
the program consists
of three components:
repair
,
replace
and
recapitalize.
this
feller
really
knows
his
stuff!
