00:00.280 --> 00:02.940
I am Staff Sergeant Terra Nicole

00:02.940 --> 00:06.260
Williams and I am a 42 Alpha in the

00:06.260 --> 00:08.930
Army , which is Human Resources . I

00:08.930 --> 00:11.260
assist with pay actions , personnel

00:11.260 --> 00:13.750
actions , make sure that soldiers have

00:13.750 --> 00:16.500
all of their credentials in order to

00:16.500 --> 00:18.722
get to the next level that they need to

00:18.722 --> 00:21.420
in their military career . My job is

00:21.420 --> 00:23.253
important because I maintain the

00:23.253 --> 00:25.364
readiness of the soldiers , make sure

00:25.364 --> 00:27.031
that their location is always

00:27.031 --> 00:29.253
maintained . Anything were to happen to

00:29.253 --> 00:31.253
them or their family , we make sure

00:31.253 --> 00:33.364
that everyone is notified in a timely

00:33.364 --> 00:35.253
manner . I am supporting the 83rd

00:35.253 --> 00:37.476
Combat Sustainment Support Battalion by

00:37.476 --> 00:39.309
maintaining the personnel status

00:39.309 --> 00:42.005
reports of not only our unit but the

00:42.005 --> 00:44.845
15th and the 18th units that we are

00:44.845 --> 00:47.012
supporting during the mission . I love

00:47.012 --> 00:49.178
assisting the soldiers . I love making

00:49.178 --> 00:51.154
sure that the soldiers have all of

00:51.154 --> 00:53.376
their pay issues taken care of , making

00:53.376 --> 00:55.543
sure that the soldiers are . Qualified

00:55.543 --> 00:57.710
and have all of their documents in the

00:57.710 --> 00:59.876
right location so that they can get to

00:59.876 --> 01:01.987
their next promotion level . A lot of

01:01.987 --> 01:04.210
people think that it's just paperwork ,

01:04.210 --> 01:06.210
but it's more than just paperwork .

01:06.210 --> 01:08.321
It's customer service and making sure

01:08.321 --> 01:10.376
that the soldiers know that they can

01:10.376 --> 01:12.432
come to us with any issues that they

01:12.432 --> 01:14.598
may have so that we can make sure that

01:14.598 --> 01:16.376
they are taken care of not just

01:16.376 --> 01:18.598
paperwork but mentally , physically and

01:18.598 --> 01:21.040
emotionally as well . I joined the 83rd

01:21.040 --> 01:23.262
Combat Sustainment Support Battalion so

01:23.262 --> 01:25.484
that I was able to deploy with them and

01:25.484 --> 01:28.120
go to Poland and get to experience what

01:28.120 --> 01:30.176
it would be like doing my job on the

01:30.176 --> 01:33.120
Polish mission going to Poland , I look

01:33.120 --> 01:35.342
forward to being able to travel outside

01:35.342 --> 01:37.064
of Poland , meeting the Polish

01:37.519 --> 01:39.919
civilians and working with the Polish

01:39.919 --> 01:41.110
army as well .
