00:00.160 --> 00:02.940
- I'm Major Randal Hobbs and
I'm a personal injury attorney

00:02.940 --> 00:05.640
with Rainwater Holt & Sexton
in Little Rock, Arkansas.

00:06.810 --> 00:10.340
So being a lawyer does
require great dedication.

00:10.340 --> 00:12.660
There's continued
education that's required

00:12.660 --> 00:14.260
upon completion of law school.

00:14.260 --> 00:17.610
So, you're continuously
learning and then trying

00:17.610 --> 00:20.920
to stay abreast of the latest legal issues

00:20.920 --> 00:22.760
and decisions that the court is making

00:22.760 --> 00:24.500
along with any kind of changes

00:24.500 --> 00:26.360
that the legislature has made.

00:26.360 --> 00:29.853
So, it's a constantly
learning and evolving process.

00:31.090 --> 00:33.180
In the Arkansas Army National Guard

00:33.180 --> 00:35.830
I'm a member of the 77th
Combat Aviation Brigade

00:35.830 --> 00:38.960
where I serve as an operations officer

00:38.960 --> 00:40.350
and have the additional duty

00:40.350 --> 00:42.750
as flying as a pilot in command.

00:43.870 --> 00:45.550
So, practicing law full time

00:45.550 --> 00:48.830
and balancing that with my
duties as a pilot in command

00:48.830 --> 00:51.060
in the Black Hawk is very demanding.

00:51.060 --> 00:53.717
In order for me to be
successful at either career

00:53.717 --> 00:57.030
requires the cooperation
of both my law firm

00:57.030 --> 00:58.810
and the Arkansas Army National Guard.

00:58.810 --> 01:02.150
I've been very fortunate
that both organizations

01:02.150 --> 01:05.053
supports the other and
encourages me in both my jobs.

01:07.170 --> 01:09.130
What keeps me in the Guard today

01:09.130 --> 01:12.300
is the sense of service to my community.

01:12.300 --> 01:13.550
I stayed in the Guard originally

01:13.550 --> 01:15.500
as a sense of duty and responsibility.

01:15.500 --> 01:18.590
And over the years ago the
Guard became a family to me.

01:18.590 --> 01:20.540
And it's that family that I look forward

01:20.540 --> 01:22.040
to seeing every drill weekend.

01:23.340 --> 01:26.280
The level of fun that I have
when I have the opportunity

01:26.280 --> 01:29.580
to go fly a Black Hawk for the
Arkansas Army National Guard

01:29.580 --> 01:31.700
it's something that I can't explain.

01:31.700 --> 01:33.510
I look forward to that each and every week

01:33.510 --> 01:35.060
when I go out there to do that.

01:36.780 --> 01:40.327
I am Major Randall Hobbs
and I am being my best.

01:40.327 --> 01:43.327
(upbeat rock music)
