I am extremely interested in moving along projects, whether it is improvements or expansions of the existing port or building a new port altogether.

I applaud efforts to address these shortfalls, through massive re-training efforts and security protocol revisions.

I look forward to following up with all of you on some of the other questions on how we can be more helpful as specifically related to my trip to Afghanistan as well.

I believe we need a conditional-based replacement not a time-based replacement; that we shouldn't be putting any more of these in the boneyard until the fly-off is done and A-X [A-10 replacement aircraft] is developed; and we make sure…

We don't need to be hyperbolizing. We don't need to be over- or under-addressing this. It needs to be based on facts.

We need to know situational awareness. We need to know operational control, like, of what we can see, what can we intercept, and then how much can we just not see?

Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result.

Intercepting drug cartels on the south side of John Ladd's ranch in Arizona, for me, is far more effective...

could we talk a little bit about the use of VADER technology and how that is impacting the ability to increase situational awareness, No. 1?

I just think this is something that is worth looking into, even though you don't want to have a huge tax, but it certainly----

Chief Vitiello, if you were in a resource-unconstrained environment, of the 1,300 miles that are remaining, I mean, do you have a sense of how many miles or what percent you would want to put additional barriers and what types of barriers?
