Hi , my name is Lance Corporal Medina

00:12.171 --> 00:14.171
Fuentes . I'm from Yabucoa , Puerto

00:14.171 --> 00:16.989
Rico . Uh the things I miss most about

00:17.000 --> 00:19.690
Puerto Rico is the food and the culture

00:19.700 --> 00:22.219
over there . The things I did the most

00:22.229 --> 00:24.340
in Puerto Rico was I used to hang out

00:24.340 --> 00:26.507
with my sisters , go to the backyard ,

00:26.507 --> 00:28.562
climb trees , get fruits , help with

00:28.562 --> 00:30.729
the farm , help the animals . Having a

00:30.729 --> 00:33.849
good time . The reason to join the

00:33.860 --> 00:36.082
Marine Corps , first and foremost is to

00:36.082 --> 00:39.029
serve my country and also to adventure

00:39.040 --> 00:41.151
around the world . Currently , I'm in

00:41.330 --> 00:43.340
Shuk for Kuana 2024 .

00:48.110 --> 00:50.700
I was really lucky to have my land

00:50.709 --> 00:53.430
cover ceremony out here in to 1 2024 .

00:54.040 --> 00:56.262
What does the promotion mean to me ? It

00:56.262 --> 00:58.429
means a lot because of that . It means

00:58.429 --> 01:00.207
people expect more of me , more

01:00.207 --> 01:02.429
responsibility on me . Do you want that

01:02.429 --> 01:04.540
out of people to uh think more of you

01:04.540 --> 01:04.980
than you when you pick up or promote ?
