1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,050
- I came across a rough patch in my life,

2
00:00:02,050 --> 00:00:03,980
and the Air Force really
helped me come out of that.

3
00:00:03,980 --> 00:00:05,490
My name is Staff Sergeant Micha Scott,

4
00:00:05,490 --> 00:00:08,400
I'm representing the 403rd
Aeromedical Staging Squadron.

5
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:11,090
The reason I joined the
Air Force Reserves is

6
00:00:11,090 --> 00:00:13,150
to become part of something
bigger than myself.

7
00:00:13,150 --> 00:00:15,420
Or witnessing how important

8
00:00:15,420 --> 00:00:18,010
and how pivotal my job was
my first year of working

9
00:00:18,010 --> 00:00:19,440
in the emergency room

10
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,250
and being able to physically see,

11
00:00:23,250 --> 00:00:25,690
and put myself in a place
where I had the opportunity

12
00:00:25,690 --> 00:00:26,960
to help save someone.

13
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:28,110
That's a big deal.

14
00:00:28,110 --> 00:00:29,280
That's a big deal,

15
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,460
because life and death
comes just like that.

16
00:00:32,460 --> 00:00:33,810
And having the opportunity

17
00:00:33,810 --> 00:00:37,414
and the ability to help
someone stay on this earth,

18
00:00:37,414 --> 00:00:38,980
like it's life changing.

19
00:00:38,980 --> 00:00:40,930
My job title is a Medical Technician,

20
00:00:40,930 --> 00:00:42,980
but we are all about
transporting patients,

21
00:00:42,980 --> 00:00:44,980
moving patients, getting
them up from here to there,

22
00:00:44,980 --> 00:00:48,010
making sure that they get the
care as quick as possible.

23
00:00:48,010 --> 00:00:51,010
I chose my job because it
gave me the opportunity

24
00:00:51,010 --> 00:00:53,440
to do a mission that
really characterized me,

25
00:00:53,440 --> 00:00:55,650
and it gave me the ability to do something

26
00:00:55,650 --> 00:00:58,100
that I always enjoy doing,
which is medical care.
