00:00.380 --> 00:02.880
(piano music)

00:28.244 --> 00:31.161
^(orchestra music)

00:40.739 --> 00:43.552
^- It struck me that the dedication

00:43.552 --> 00:45.680
^of our soldiers and airmen,

00:45.680 --> 00:49.763
^that spirit of really putting the good of others

00:50.353 --> 00:51.982
in front of their own,

00:51.982 --> 00:55.649
I just am so proud of my soldier and airmen.

00:56.456 --> 00:59.373
^(orchestra music)

01:10.273 --> 01:13.273
- We haven't seen this level of rain

01:13.532 --> 01:15.734
in the low country in a thousand years.

01:15.734 --> 01:17.634
That's how big this is.

01:17.634 --> 01:20.551
^(orchestra music)

02:00.330 --> 02:02.816
- We're providing potable water to the hospitals

02:02.816 --> 02:04.501
^for them to do their surgeries,

02:04.501 --> 02:06.964
^and clean their surgical equipment.

02:06.964 --> 02:09.414
We're saving lives, providing this water

02:09.414 --> 02:10.749
^for the community.

02:10.749 --> 02:12.309
^- We have a hurricane that seems to be

02:12.309 --> 02:14.990
^steering towards South Carolina.

02:14.990 --> 02:19.157
^We declared a state of emergency at 7:30 this morning.

02:21.455 --> 02:22.367
^- Most of our troops are here

02:22.367 --> 02:23.957
^doing traffic control points

02:23.957 --> 02:25.259
^with the local law enforcement.

02:25.259 --> 02:28.676
^They're out along the evacuation routes.

02:30.893 --> 02:32.579
- Well to day I was tasked out to go assist

02:32.579 --> 02:35.912
a water evacuation for an elderly woman.

02:36.458 --> 02:37.397
They had her on oxygen,

02:37.397 --> 02:38.574
and we got her out of there safely

02:38.574 --> 02:41.267
from her house into the ambulance.

02:41.267 --> 02:44.184
^(orchestra music)

03:08.658 --> 03:11.056
^- The two biggest impressions I'll walk away with

03:11.056 --> 03:13.806
^is the spirit of South Carolina,

03:15.367 --> 03:18.122
and then the professionalism of the people

03:18.122 --> 03:22.289
who were responding to disasters here in South Carolina.

03:23.511 --> 03:26.094
^(piano music)

03:33.599 --> 03:36.760
- This is a time of faith, this is a time of strength,

03:36.760 --> 03:38.689
and this is a time of taking of each other,

03:38.689 --> 03:41.939
and neighbors taking care of neighbors.

03:43.835 --> 03:46.335
(piano music)

03:47.217 --> 03:48.834
- My personal take is, I'm proud to be here,

03:48.834 --> 03:50.960
I live around here, I'm from here,

03:50.960 --> 03:53.415
and a chance to come out and help out with this storm

03:53.415 --> 03:54.947
with my friends, family, and neighbors,

03:54.947 --> 03:58.280
it was really good to help my community.
