00:10.643 --> 00:12.810

00:12.810 --> 00:14.921
in the Air Force Honor Guard . I feel

00:14.921 --> 00:16.866
honored being able to march at the

00:16.866 --> 00:19.032
presidential inauguration , being that

00:19.032 --> 00:21.254
I'm from a small town means a lot to be

00:21.254 --> 00:23.310
a part of very large things and that

00:23.310 --> 00:23.090
I'm gonna be representing those from my

00:23.090 --> 00:26.020
small town . Being in this inauguration

00:26.020 --> 00:27.964

00:30.020 --> 00:32.187
opportunity to represent the Air Force

00:32.187 --> 00:34.187
