1 00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:12,640 Hello everybody so my name is Nyimin. I'm Airman First Class from civil engineering.   2 00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:22,240 I came from Burma or also you can call Myanmar  in Southeast Asia, at the end of 2019 I came here.  3 00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:30,960 I had like a dream to you know do something in the  military so I have a thing for the Air Force so   4 00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:36,880 and then when I got here I feel like I got a  second chance. So I was kind of nervous um   5 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:47,120 because uh Colonel Hopper uh he was the one who did the oath of enlistment. My recruiter, she let me 6 00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:54,080 choose the jobs and then I found  electrical systems um   7 00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:01,200 and I think that was gonna  suit me because I had   8 00:01:01,200 --> 00:01:08,240 some experience on it. So for the citizenship  process, there's a military, like if you   9 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:13,200 serve in the military for more than one years  you're eligible to apply for 10 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:17,840 the citizenship. So I applied  for the application and then   11 00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:24,000 for me it only took me six months to  complete the whole process and now i can   12 00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:32,400 do a lot of stuff like other  American citizens, like voting. After the ceremony um   13 00:01:32,960 --> 00:01:41,440 me and Captain Dawson from uh from our unit  and then uh sergeant um so yeah Sergeant Ashby   14 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:46,640 we all went to Burmese restaurant. I kind  of I kind of want them uh to introduce   15 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:52,160 our traditional food um Captain  Dawson said, "Oh I didn't like that much."  16 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:59,920 There was no food in the bowl and I was like  oh sir like only if you like it I want 17 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:06,720 to see the bowl you might have all the bowl too.  Sergeant Ashby um he said he got uh   18 00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:14,720 how do you say like a bad  appetite. Okay, favorite American fast food um I   19 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:22,160 will just I would say uh pizza so far for the fast  food. I'm happy with becoming a citizen and   20 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:35,840 then I really love working uh you know as a member  of the 181 Indiana uh Indiana Air National Guard. 21 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:39,460
