1 00:00:00,009 --> 00:00:02,210 Commitment , being committed to , not 2 00:00:02,220 --> 00:00:04,442 just myself , like I have my family , I 3 00:00:04,442 --> 00:00:06,664 got the sailors , I got the navy . I've 4 00:00:06,664 --> 00:00:08,553 chose to do this for 19 years . I 5 00:00:08,553 --> 00:00:10,498 continuing on , you know , another 6 00:00:10,498 --> 00:00:12,779 three years in after this and just 7 00:00:12,789 --> 00:00:15,050 being committed to not giving up , not 8 00:00:15,060 --> 00:00:18,409 taking it easy . This is a definitely 9 00:00:18,420 --> 00:00:20,510 uh unexpected . I mean , 19 years , 10 00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,742 you're like , OK , you know , what does 11 00:00:22,742 --> 00:00:24,909 the Navy have plan for me ? Because at 12 00:00:24,909 --> 00:00:26,964 some point , they're gonna ask me to 13 00:00:26,964 --> 00:00:29,187 leave in this way , they've asked me to 14 00:00:29,187 --> 00:00:31,298 stay . So it's kind of nice . There's 15 00:00:31,298 --> 00:00:33,520 more resources available . I can have a 16 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,687 bigger impact on my sailors lives . Uh 17 00:00:35,687 --> 00:00:37,798 I know the chiefs that took care that 18 00:00:37,798 --> 00:00:37,520 took care of me growing up through the 19 00:00:37,529 --> 00:00:39,585 ranks and I'm eternally grateful and 20 00:00:39,585 --> 00:00:41,585 definitely see where they're coming 21 00:00:41,585 --> 00:00:43,473 from now , the good , bad and the 22 00:00:43,473 --> 00:00:45,529 indifferent . But uh seeing that the 23 00:00:45,529 --> 00:00:48,159 network is available just makes me more 24 00:00:48,169 --> 00:00:49,290 inspired that I can do more .
