 Perfection is expected and excellence is tolerated. When they come to drill team, we basically let them know that they have about six months to reach their first major milestone. If they're not able to accomplish that, then unfortunately they would have to try another platoon. I'm here to instruct people, train people for when I leave, they will do the job better than me. That's my end goal is to make sure that they are better than me. We strive to do our best and our best has to be perfection. They're here even when they're not supposed to be here. After hours you can see them drilling, you'll see them training each other. We'll practice nine to twelve hours a day. That type of dedication is something that you can't teach. You actually require to name your rifle. My rifle's name is Whitney. Petty Officer Reid, what can I say? As soon as I arrived one year ago, he was someone that initially stood out to me that took initiative. He's looked at what was on my plate and has always asked me, what can I do to help? How can I be an added value to the drill team? He's actually one of the top qualified members, which means that he's not just one of the leaders in drill team, but he's one of the leaders here in this command. In all honesty, I was the underdog. It was kind of depressing. At first I didn't really see it because back in high school I was kind of like, I don't want to say bullied, but I definitely wasn't the most popular kid. So it was something normal to me. There was some points where I did, like, you know what, I can't do this anymore, but it all goes back to my grandfather. He told me way back when, like, you can do whatever you need to. Just do it. So I just listened to that and I would call him as much as possible and tell him, hey, I'm doing better. So then he died. So I was like, you know what? Okay, I'm still going to do this and I'm going to do this for him. So every time we do our prayers before we go out there, I make sure that he knows that I'm open for it now.
