00:00.330 --> 00:04.603
- Sgt. Tyler Christman,
T-Y-L-E-R C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-N.

00:05.730 --> 00:08.783
I'm with B code 235, 11 Bravo, infantry.

00:10.490 --> 00:12.730
Well, I deployed 2016 to Afghanistan.

00:12.730 --> 00:15.950
Been to numerous NTC and JROTC rotations.

00:15.950 --> 00:19.420
Along with optional training
leading up to those.

00:19.420 --> 00:21.480
I went to the joint
readiness training center,

00:21.480 --> 00:25.280
pretty much the final finale
to deploy for soldiers.

00:25.280 --> 00:26.570
Where we demonstrate if we're ready

00:26.570 --> 00:29.571
and capable to deploy
and maneuver as a team.

00:29.571 --> 00:30.404
Yeah.

00:30.404 --> 00:32.470
So, I'm just looking for more
leadership opportunities.

00:32.470 --> 00:33.303
Working with my guys,

00:33.303 --> 00:35.130
this is the first I
actually worked with my guys

00:35.130 --> 00:37.600
since they completed basic OSUT training.

00:37.600 --> 00:40.570
So, being here is a great opportunity to

00:40.570 --> 00:44.710
build that comradery
and that team chemistry

00:44.710 --> 00:45.840
that we're looking for.

00:45.840 --> 00:48.230
So also working with
another military as it ties,

00:48.230 --> 00:50.260
I look forward to seeing
how they do stuff.

00:50.260 --> 00:55.260
Also, being prior deploying
to a combat place, country,

00:56.850 --> 01:01.040
they're looking to me to be
the subject matter expert

01:01.040 --> 01:04.470
on counter IED and stuff like that.

01:04.470 --> 01:05.460
Just excited to be here,

01:05.460 --> 01:07.640
excited to see what Tylan has to offer,

01:07.640 --> 01:09.240
the training opportunities.

01:09.240 --> 01:12.100
I love widening my knowledge as a leader,

01:12.100 --> 01:14.650
not only that, but I
love to see new places,

01:14.650 --> 01:15.750
so I'm pretty excited.
