Inspirational music

2
00:00:03,340 --> 00:00:07,820
I feel honored,
you know the whole honored privileged.

3
00:00:07,830 --> 00:00:13,920
I think it's it's very important that this
kind of thing gets put out there, the

4
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:18,779
information, because the episode not only
focuses on the actions that I did, but

5
00:00:18,779 --> 00:00:26,640
also the actions of other soldiers and it focuses or emphasizes the

6
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:31,050
whole you know you don't have to be best
friends to care about each other.

7
00:00:31,050 --> 00:00:37,739
You don't have to you know, know each other
even to want to help one another and the

8
00:00:37,740 --> 00:00:42,020
episode really has a as a good feeling towards that.

9
00:00:45,460 --> 00:00:51,920
I've had the privilege for this Netflix
Medal of Honor series to be on set not

10
00:00:51,930 --> 00:00:56,790
only for Clint Romesha's filming but
also mine and I assisted in both, to make

11
00:00:56,790 --> 00:01:00,560
sure it is accurate and
as meaningful as possible.

12
00:01:00,700 --> 00:01:06,760
I got to meet the actors, hung out with the directors.
I think they really did a good job on

13
00:01:06,770 --> 00:01:14,009
creating the feeling, and you know
pushing what our service members do out

14
00:01:14,009 --> 00:01:15,040
there today.

15
00:01:17,850 --> 00:01:22,040
I've always loved and wanted to be a part
of the movies. When I was a kid my mother

16
00:01:22,050 --> 00:01:25,409
worked at a movie theater. When I was an adult
I worked in a movie theater and I always

17
00:01:25,409 --> 00:01:29,550
imagined that someday I would be a part
of it, and so just being on set and

18
00:01:29,550 --> 00:01:35,520
filming I learned so much and I had a
greater respect towards the filming

19
00:01:35,520 --> 00:01:39,900
thing, and now actually look at the
credits to see if I know somebody or you

20
00:01:39,900 --> 00:01:42,390
know because I want to learn about the
people making the movies instead of just

21
00:01:42,390 --> 00:01:47,100
enjoying the movie. So that was it was a
childhood dream of mine to be a part of

22
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:51,890
the film-making process and I achieved
that. Unfortunately, it was based off of

23
00:01:51,890 --> 00:01:55,520
the situation that the film was made out of
but I still appreciated it.

24
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:03,980
For service members advice while deployed or
thinking about joining just know that

25
00:02:03,990 --> 00:02:09,869
the tougher the situation is, the
stronger you get. If you can find a way

26
00:02:09,869 --> 00:02:14,130
to push through and never give up you'll
be a hundred times stronger than you

27
00:02:14,130 --> 00:02:17,730
ever thought you were. You will be a
hundred times braver, and then the rest

28
00:02:17,730 --> 00:02:23,489
of life actually becomes a lot simpler.
So please continue to push and enjoy the

29
00:02:23,489 --> 00:02:24,311
small moments.
