I really enjoyed the video you posted of the tour group showcasing San Diegos naval installations. It was really an original idea to show an actual home video, even though the audio was not the best. Still, I learned a few things that I had not known about San Diego. I was aware already of San Diego having a large part in the military, especially the Navy. What I was not aware of was how much the Navy contributed in aiding foreign countries in need, for example the cyclone that hit Bangladesh. Overall, I think this is a perfect video to post for the chapter on California. It really describes the contributions that California does for the United States.
