(scraping)

00:06.120 --> 00:08.720
- [Nicholas] For many servicemembers, a tour in the Pacific

00:08.720 --> 00:11.950
is an opportunity to do much more than just the mission.

00:11.950 --> 00:15.270
It's an opportunity to explore personal interests.

00:15.270 --> 00:16.940
- I love being able to maintain

00:16.940 --> 00:19.150
all these cool munition systems

00:19.150 --> 00:20.510
and how rewarding it is

00:20.770 --> 00:23.600
to see my missiles flying around on those jets.

00:23.600 --> 00:25.850
On the weekends while I'm not working,

00:25.850 --> 00:30.040
I like to go out and take photos of pretty much anything.

00:30.040 --> 00:32.480
I usually try to do a research on a location,

00:32.480 --> 00:35.430
then I'll go to that location and take pictures there.

00:35.430 --> 00:37.250
If I'm being more spur-of-the-moment,

00:37.250 --> 00:38.600
I'll just walk around the city

00:38.600 --> 00:40.130
and just take pictures of what I see.

00:40.130 --> 00:42.130
Photography right now is,

00:42.140 --> 00:43.430
what it is, it's a hobby.

00:43.430 --> 00:45.820
It's a lot of fun for me to do.

00:45.820 --> 00:47.720
The military provided me with the opportunity

00:47.720 --> 00:50.380
to see all these cool places around the world,

00:50.640 --> 00:51.690
like Japan and Korea.

00:51.740 --> 00:53.390

Kusan Air Base, Korea.
