- [Announcer] Today we'll be honoring Colonel Steve Stivers

00:05.332 --> 00:08.467
as he's promoted to the rank of Brigadier General.

00:08.467 --> 00:09.658
- Well, I'm very humbled,

00:09.658 --> 00:12.192
but I certainly know that it's not me.

00:12.192 --> 00:14.972
It's all the people that I had a chance to work with,

00:14.972 --> 00:17.181
that helped us accomplish so many great things

00:17.181 --> 00:18.431
in my 31 years.

00:18.710 --> 00:20.914
This is an incredible opportunity for me.

00:20.914 --> 00:23.263
I take the responsibility very seriously.

00:23.263 --> 00:25.341
But I wanted to celebrate with family and friends

00:25.341 --> 00:27.909
and the people that helped get me here.

00:27.909 --> 00:31.033
That's why it's great to have a packed room

00:31.033 --> 00:33.366
for this promotion ceremony.

00:34.563 --> 00:37.730
