00:18Ladies and gentlemen, would you please be seated.
01:53So I know something about the celebrations that will come later.
02:03We live in a time of change and uncertainty.
02:06And you, as the future of the Royal Air Force, are the ones who ensure that we are able to adapt and face future threats.
02:14I'm delighted that there's a parade today including graduates of the commissioned war officers course,
02:19men and women who have risen to the highest non-commissioned ranks and have kept rising.
02:26We also have initial officer trainees who I know will be eager to get out on an officer for the first time.
02:32But whatever your experience, this parade marks the culmination of many months of hard work and determination,
02:39operating globally at the extremes of home support.
