00:01.780 --> 00:05.560
- I liked most about the
Army was probably the travel,

00:05.560 --> 00:06.820
the camaraderie,

00:06.820 --> 00:09.650
the getting to know so
many different people,

00:09.650 --> 00:10.510
and getting to see

00:10.510 --> 00:13.140
so much different
countries and everything.

00:13.140 --> 00:15.850
I went to Panama. It was one of them that-

00:15.850 --> 00:18.590
I've gone to Korea. I was in Germany.

00:18.590 --> 00:21.283
I went to Iraq. I was in Kuwait.

00:22.870 --> 00:25.303
I was in England, so.

00:25.303 --> 00:26.136
I would have to say that
I enjoyed probably Panama.

00:26.136 --> 00:29.870
I would have to say that
I enjoyed probably Panama.

00:29.870 --> 00:31.100
Panama I really enjoyed.

00:31.100 --> 00:33.050
We were down there for jungle training.

00:34.180 --> 00:37.633
I got to hold monkeys. I got
to play around the jungle.

00:38.480 --> 00:40.700
Something you usually don't get to do.

00:40.700 --> 00:42.810
It's just totally different.

00:42.810 --> 00:43.973
That was kind of fun.

00:46.340 --> 00:47.690
Panama would have to be it.

00:49.240 --> 00:51.440
The only other things
I'd like to add is that

00:51.440 --> 00:54.240
being able to have gone overseas

00:54.240 --> 00:57.273
and serve like I did was
number one, an honor.

00:58.180 --> 01:01.230
I was able to, when I came
back of course, joined the VFW,

01:01.230 --> 01:02.579
which is a pro organization
I truly, deeply involved in.

01:02.579 --> 01:06.893
which is a pro organization
I truly, deeply involved in.

01:09.150 --> 01:11.330
Another very important thing to me is

01:11.330 --> 01:14.633
I have a daughter right now
that is serving active duty.

01:15.490 --> 01:18.210
She's getting ready to be transferred.

01:18.210 --> 01:21.363
She just finished and graduated
Drill Sergeant Academy,

01:22.746 --> 01:24.600
and she's an E-6 now,

01:24.600 --> 01:26.640
and she'd been in for
just over nine years,

01:26.640 --> 01:29.880
and it's very, very proud of her for that.

01:29.880 --> 01:31.480
Followed in mom and dad's footsteps,

01:31.480 --> 01:32.472
and I think it gives you chills knowing

01:32.472 --> 01:36.010
and I think it gives you chills knowing

01:36.010 --> 01:38.430
that you have siblings that do that

01:38.430 --> 01:40.490
and want to fulfill in their life

01:40.490 --> 01:42.453
with what moms and dad did also.
