Without properly maintained ships, submarines, aircraft, and weapon systems, our forces cannot perform necessary training required to build readiness or meet the operational requirements that are placed upon them.
And, unfortunately, every month people are getting assassinated that we are working with around the world to protect natural resources.
I am concerned that the 2019 budget request may not appropriately balance long-term readiness recovery through modernization with near-term efforts through sustainment and maintenance.
Thank you very much. And, Mr. Chairman, I want to say thank you. This has been a very informative hearing.
