 I got to see what my dad did and I think that's pretty cool because I kind of want to be like my dad, but at the same time I want to be my own self. From Delta companies, we appreciate you and your family. I wanted to give you our company more of excellence. Thank you sir. Also at the same time, very eye-opening experience for me because I was also the first handler that I self-pass away. So it was very eye-opening to what we do. It's not just we go down to a leash and we walk down the streets of some installation. We go to secret service missions. We go down range, we're in the front. We're expected to protect everybody behind us. So it was a very eye-opening experience for me. We're going to do a 21-minute am-ramp as many rounds as possible. They're doing this is very meaningful. A lot of times I'm overwhelmed with emotion, so it's hard to say a lot of words. I can say a lot more words and I'm good at lecturing my kids. I'm good at lecturing my patients. But as a Gold Star spouse, I don't always have the words to say, but all this is very meaningful to our family. I like to see what my dad's footsteps were, to see what you've gone through and stuff like that. I've always found his stuff and messed with it, pretend like I was with him or something like that. So today we will be covering a building search, how we train our dogs to locate an individual in the building. You'll see the beginning stages as far as well as some more advanced stages as the dogs progress through training. We'll also cover basic obedience, which are the building blocks of what we build off of for the dogs. We'll also do scouting, which is the same as similar to building where you're searching for an individual, but out in a field, wood line, that kind of area. Bite work as well, that's part of our patrol training. So bite apprehending a suspect, biting the arm, holding the decoy. Of course this is my dad's. Of course this shows Rotom on the other side. This is probably one of the only services, occupations, communities that do a lot to honor the fallen. To me, they really accommodated Zachary to bring him out, to let him see and follow in the footsteps of what his dad did for a living. One of the things that he loved and enjoyed most, of course, was canine. He loved that job. He said that that was the best job in the world, the best job in the Army. And today Zach got to experience that firsthand. Zach was a kid when his dad got killed in Afghanistan. And I think being an adult now, it was good for him to experience this today. That's our unofficial squadron coin. So just want to present this to you so you remember your time here. Any time you look at it. It has a flag and it has the logo right here. If you look on the collar, there's 341st TRS. It's pretty cool. I had an amazing time at the training squadron for working with the dogs. And I'm a bit sore from the workout, but it is what it is. I did enjoy it. I really appreciate you coming out. I'm glad to see that you wanted to come out and see what it is to be a military working dog trainer or trainer. I think that is phenomenal. All right, there's a very small select few that want to do this job day in and day out. So I really appreciate that. So on behalf of the commander of the 341st, the military working dog course, we're going to present you with your honorary blue patch. Zachary E. Rodriguez is hereby recognized as an honorary princess military working dog trainer on this 21st day of December 2022. All right, so this is something that you can take with you. Okay, and hang it on your wall, put it on your desk or whatever you want to do with it. Okay. And along with this, you actually get the patch. Oh, say it. You already got one? I got to see what my dad did. And I think that's pretty cool because I kind of want to be like my dad. But at the same time, I want to be my own self. Delta companies, we appreciate you and your family. I wanted to give you our company more of excellence. Thank you sir.
