1
00:00:08,399 --> 00:00:10,380
(indistinct)

2
00:00:10,380 --> 00:00:11,847
- We can't do it together?

3
00:00:11,847 --> 00:00:13,300
Okay.

4
00:00:13,300 --> 00:00:16,763
I've been in the Navy Reserve
for about five years now.

5
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,130
I am a Mass Communications Specialist,

6
00:00:22,130 --> 00:00:24,313
at Commander, Navy Reserve Forces Command.

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:30,810
I do a lot of administrative
tasks like photographs,

8
00:00:30,810 --> 00:00:34,853
studio photos, shoot award ceremonies.

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:40,060
What I enjoy about being
in the Navy Reserve

10
00:00:40,060 --> 00:00:44,160
is the versatility of being a sailor

11
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:47,070
and being able to serve in that manner,

12
00:00:47,070 --> 00:00:50,820
but also having my civilian life as well.

13
00:00:50,820 --> 00:00:52,920
So my family here consists of

14
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:57,280
my son Jackson and our dog, Oreo.

15
00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:59,583
Oreo's three months old, Jackson's seven.

16
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:01,673
With being a reservist,

17
00:01:01,673 --> 00:01:06,200
it allows some flexibility
in where we're able to be,

18
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:08,023
to move around a little bit.

19
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,600
When I'm getting ready for work,

20
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,470
I know that it can be
something different every day.

21
00:01:14,470 --> 00:01:17,400
I'm not sure what I'm going to walk into.

22
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:20,343
So I just get ready to
expect the unexpected.
