^(rock music)

00:02.344 --> 00:05.020
^- Staff Sergeant Clauber Santos from Honolulu, Hawaii

00:05.020 --> 00:09.020
and I am a medical technician at the 624th ASTS.

00:09.378 --> 00:11.142
I feel I contribute to the mission by

00:11.142 --> 00:13.466
being the first line of defense to the patients

00:13.466 --> 00:16.632
that come into the hospital or clinic setting.

00:16.632 --> 00:20.300
Either if you're going to deploy or get an annual PHA

00:20.300 --> 00:22.845
or just a sick call, they see us first

00:22.845 --> 00:25.840
before they see the nurses and the doctors.

00:25.840 --> 00:29.290
My favorite part of the job is being there, the environment.

00:29.290 --> 00:32.012
Seeing the patients and being there with my coworkers,

00:32.012 --> 00:34.315
we have a strong commraderie.

00:34.315 --> 00:35.673
The med techs, nurses and doctors

00:35.673 --> 00:37.775
they really care for each other and it's a big family.
