00:03.360 --> 00:05.790
Today we have 8 91st Engineering

00:05.800 --> 00:08.820
Battalion that's going out for their

00:09.350 --> 00:11.572
deployment . They're headed out to Fort

00:11.572 --> 00:13.920
Bliss for their pre deployment training

00:14.160 --> 00:16.104
in the Internet . They're going to

00:16.104 --> 00:17.993
theatre with a nail , are to help

00:17.993 --> 00:20.210
security defending our country with

00:20.220 --> 00:22.442
this particular unit . I think it's set

00:22.442 --> 00:24.780
up a perfect scenario . Have the angle

00:24.780 --> 00:26.836
training prior to them going down to

00:26.836 --> 00:29.440
Fort Bliss ? They have enhanced their

00:29.440 --> 00:32.100
skills doing their annual training .

00:32.370 --> 00:35.120
That will really help compensate for

00:35.440 --> 00:37.607
anything that there was like it when I

00:37.607 --> 00:39.829
get down to Fort Bliss . So some things

00:39.829 --> 00:41.996
that they did out in Samana they won't

00:41.996 --> 00:43.829
have to do with Fort Bliss . But

00:43.829 --> 00:45.829
something has hands their skill set

00:45.829 --> 00:47.996
when they get down and easier path for

00:48.120 --> 00:49.898
to prepare themselves for their

00:49.898 --> 00:52.770
deployment . 8 91st Engineer Battalion

00:52.770 --> 00:55.370
is deploying , and we heard that they

00:55.370 --> 00:57.481
didn't get much of a send off . So we

00:57.481 --> 00:59.703
got everybody over here . All my scouts

00:59.703 --> 01:01.814
and we just learned give him a proper

01:01.814 --> 01:04.092
send off . I have a special attachment ,

01:04.092 --> 01:05.981
and I think a lot Sergeant Majors

01:05.981 --> 01:08.148
commands are majors in particular have

01:08.148 --> 01:10.203
a special attachment to those people

01:10.203 --> 01:12.380
who they were first signed to as a

01:12.390 --> 01:14.880
command sergeant Major ? No . And I'd

01:14.880 --> 01:17.420
like to tell him is Teoh . Keep your

01:17.420 --> 01:19.960
head on straight . Don't become

01:19.960 --> 01:23.130
complacent . This complacency will get

01:23.130 --> 01:25.241
you hurt . Miss my first deployment ,

01:25.340 --> 01:27.562
and I knew I wanted to get one under my

01:27.562 --> 01:29.673
belt . And I know there's some people

01:29.673 --> 01:29.500
that don't have an opportunity to

01:29.500 --> 01:32.960
deploy or it just comes later . It's

01:32.960 --> 01:35.430
been a long journey , and I just know

01:35.430 --> 01:39.350
that I just really want to be a part of

01:39.860 --> 01:42.027
something great . And I know that this

01:42.027 --> 01:43.916
point something great . I love my

01:43.916 --> 01:45.916
country and I love my state , and I

01:45.916 --> 01:47.971
want to be a great representation of

01:48.440 --> 01:51.300
being in the Kansas Guard and

01:51.300 --> 01:52.720
representing us overseas .
