ms. jones: thank you. general silva as well, looking at that modernization, $700 billion. 1.5 trillion paradis is that something that given the whole scope in terms of our budget does it make sense today? my response is yes, it does make sense. it makes sense in the context that we are talking across a 40 year time span. about $700 million to modernize the three legs of the triad to make available to future secretaries of defense and commanders in chief. reliable,, secure, nuclear triad that allows those individuals 20 or 30 years into able to stay ae strategic responses as well as ofport the possibility negotiating away and tire types and classes of weapons. that process will have to continue over a long time span. the arsenal and weapons we have today are ready, secure, and credible. but they must be modernized over the span of time to keep those options available to our commanders in chief. you, mr.: thank chairman. >> thank you so much for your service. i especially appreciate what you are doing as a veteran, myself
