00:05.630 --> 00:07.829
I am Sergeant Andy Ortiz . I'm

00:07.829 --> 00:10.489
currently a 15 whiskey , which is an

00:10.489 --> 00:13.149
unmanned aerial system operator . So

00:13.149 --> 00:15.909
right now , I am currently flying small

00:15.909 --> 00:18.409
unmanned aerial systems . So I'm

00:18.409 --> 00:20.298
currently with the 173rd Airborne

00:20.298 --> 00:22.690
Brigade . We are supporting the 41st

00:22.690 --> 00:24.746
Good artillery Brigade by supporting

00:24.746 --> 00:26.857
their evaluations to conducting short

00:26.857 --> 00:29.023
range reconnaissance and by validating

00:29.023 --> 00:31.090
their brigade tactics through a UAS

00:31.090 --> 00:33.569
dominant environment . I joined the

00:33.569 --> 00:35.680
army because of both of my uncles who

00:35.680 --> 00:37.625
served in Desert Storm . I want to

00:37.625 --> 00:39.791
carry on their legacy by continuing my

00:39.791 --> 00:41.680
service to the country as well as

00:41.680 --> 00:43.958
taking the opportunity to go to school .

00:43.958 --> 00:43.189
Go ahead .
