>> HSI, Los Angeles Rapid Response Team
was invited to participate
in Operation Patriot Hook.
It is a U.S. Air Force-sponsored
event that integrates the various emergency
disaster response teams across the country,
and get them in a capacity
to where they can safely
and rapidly load
their equipment personnel safely
onto military aircraft,
and then they can be positioned basically anywhere
in the country or across the globe.
This is still in the process of the JI,
which is Joint Inspection.
We are getting individual weights
of each piece of equipment
that we're putting on the airplane,
and put it in the equation,
and then we get the center balance,
and then we feed that to the Air Force.
And then the road master puts that into his equation;
thus, he can load the plane safely
to where it will get to its destination
in one piece.
