00:05.240 --> 00:07.960
charitable acts . Fever says , what um

00:08.640 --> 00:10.751
what do you like about being an adult

00:10.751 --> 00:13.680
army soldier and vehicles ? Just an

00:13.680 --> 00:16.860
army soldier in itself to give back ,

00:17.440 --> 00:20.260
you know , for just a lifestyle that a

00:20.260 --> 00:22.620
lot of people take for granted uh

00:22.630 --> 00:24.852
whether , you know , I've been to a lot

00:24.852 --> 00:27.019
of different countries and things like

00:27.019 --> 00:29.074
that within the military and to just

00:29.074 --> 00:31.830
see um how other people either live or

00:31.830 --> 00:34.990
just cultural , so to speak . It makes

00:34.990 --> 00:37.101
me not just proud to be an american ,

00:37.101 --> 00:39.323
but a proud to be able to give back and

00:39.323 --> 00:42.750
be a part of uh the american

00:43.140 --> 00:45.400
way of life and just protecting and

00:45.410 --> 00:49.410
being part of the United States and

00:49.410 --> 00:52.360
itself . What do you like most about

00:52.370 --> 00:54.537
being a golden night thing I like most

00:54.537 --> 00:57.290
about being a Golden Knight is , you

00:57.290 --> 00:59.290
know , and it's almost kind of goes

00:59.290 --> 01:02.050
along with what the Golden Knights do .

01:02.060 --> 01:05.810
Uh We get to bridge the gap between

01:05.820 --> 01:09.560
military and civilian counterparts .

01:09.570 --> 01:13.500
We show them the capabilities of

01:13.510 --> 01:15.566
the United States Army , some of the

01:15.566 --> 01:17.788
things that we do , the training , some

01:17.788 --> 01:20.020
of the different capabilities that the

01:20.020 --> 01:22.530
military has with freefall operations

01:22.540 --> 01:26.480
or just discipline or even , you

01:26.480 --> 01:29.160
know , uniformity , just your basic

01:29.940 --> 01:32.860
military means . We there's a lot of

01:32.870 --> 01:34.960
people in different cities and towns

01:34.960 --> 01:37.060
that don't get the opportunity to

01:37.070 --> 01:40.160
actually see their military outside of

01:40.170 --> 01:43.130
video games or movies . So we get to

01:43.130 --> 01:45.170
come in and show them the different

01:45.170 --> 01:47.392
opportunities , different options . And

01:47.392 --> 01:49.114
of course , obviously what the

01:49.114 --> 01:51.530
capabilities of the United States Army

01:51.530 --> 01:54.170
or Military Forces are capable of three .

01:56.140 --> 01:58.960
Mhm . Yeah , so you're obviously got a

01:58.970 --> 02:00.970
lot of people who have never jumped

02:00.970 --> 02:02.970
before and you get to experience it

02:02.970 --> 02:04.970
with their first time . Yes ma'am .

02:04.970 --> 02:07.020
That like it's great to have around

02:07.020 --> 02:09.860
3200 jumps and I don't have that first

02:09.860 --> 02:12.080
time fielding anymore , but it's great

02:12.080 --> 02:14.700
to be able to do this military wise and

02:14.700 --> 02:16.811
civilian wise to be able to give that

02:16.811 --> 02:18.756
first time feeling to someone that

02:19.040 --> 02:21.151
might not even have that chance prior

02:21.151 --> 02:23.410
to , I've taken people in wheelchairs ,

02:23.410 --> 02:25.680
I've taken Quadra a quadra paraplegic ,

02:25.700 --> 02:28.290
believe it's how you say it um on their

02:28.290 --> 02:30.234
first times . God I've and they've

02:30.234 --> 02:32.290
loved it and just just to experience

02:32.290 --> 02:35.050
that is great and more than that even

02:35.060 --> 02:37.840
it's on a , on a different level in the

02:37.840 --> 02:40.120
sense that you know , everyday

02:40.130 --> 02:43.590
americans put their lives in the hands

02:43.600 --> 02:46.230
of a soldier or a military member ,

02:46.230 --> 02:48.230
whether it be Air Force , Marines ,

02:48.230 --> 02:50.230
Navy Army and you know , the people

02:50.230 --> 02:52.452
that I take sometimes , especially even

02:52.452 --> 02:54.620
those that are here today are going to

02:54.620 --> 02:56.453
witness that firsthand , they're

02:56.453 --> 02:59.890
putting their life in the hands of you

02:59.890 --> 03:02.500
know , United States service member and

03:02.500 --> 03:04.611
I'm not only just proud to be able to

03:04.611 --> 03:06.722
do that , but hopefully they can take

03:06.722 --> 03:08.889
that , you know back with them and not

03:08.889 --> 03:10.944
only that they had a great time that

03:10.944 --> 03:10.850
they know a little bit about what the

03:10.850 --> 03:12.961
capabilities of the military services

03:12.961 --> 03:15.072
are , but that they can take a little

03:15.072 --> 03:17.290
bit more appreciation uh you know what

03:17.300 --> 03:19.930
people are doing abroad . You know ,

03:19.930 --> 03:23.570
stateside , just protecting them . All

03:23.570 --> 03:26.070
kinds of jobs , all services to be able

03:26.070 --> 03:28.720
to put their hands or their lives in

03:28.720 --> 03:30.664
the hands of the military member .

03:31.410 --> 03:33.521
Wonderful ! Thank you so much . Yes ,

03:33.521 --> 03:33.430
ma'am .
