I would dearly love to see Oceana continue as a Master Jet Base, but the decision in terms of where BRAC continues on is not one that involves me. I really would like to hold off on any assessment of what's transpiring there in terms of encroachment or remediation activities.

It's very critical that we have adequate master jet base capabilities to ensure we can continue both training and operational support activities.
