Hi , I'm Lieutenant junior grade , 

3
00:00:15,603 --> 00:00:17,659
Alison Ruth . I'm in the coast guard 

4
00:00:17,659 --> 00:00:19,548
stationed on coast guard cutter , 

5
00:00:19,548 --> 00:00:21,799
midget day to day . I stand about four 

6
00:00:21,809 --> 00:00:24,600
hours of watch on the bridge . And then 

7
00:00:24,610 --> 00:00:27,159
all the other work is mainly devoted to 

8
00:00:27,170 --> 00:00:29,299
my collaterals as the law enforcement 

9
00:00:29,309 --> 00:00:31,479
officer . I'm in charge of all the 

10
00:00:31,489 --> 00:00:34,080
drills and qualifications on board . 

11
00:00:34,090 --> 00:00:36,799
And then if we go to any boardings , I 

12
00:00:36,810 --> 00:00:40,290
help orchestrate that as well . My 

13
00:00:40,299 --> 00:00:42,279
favorite part about the job is the 

14
00:00:42,290 --> 00:00:44,790
operations when I get to go out in the 

15
00:00:44,799 --> 00:00:47,409
small boat , uh , go out on the ocean , 

16
00:00:47,500 --> 00:00:50,650
um , and do the boardings with my team . 

17
00:00:51,139 --> 00:00:53,490
So this is my second rim pack . I think 

18
00:00:53,500 --> 00:00:55,611
the most exciting thing to get out of 

19
00:00:55,611 --> 00:00:58,240
rim pack is all the other vessels and 

20
00:00:58,250 --> 00:01:00,509
knowing what they do and how you share 

21
00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,459
the same values . And I think all the 

22
00:01:03,470 --> 00:01:05,639
other interactions with the junior 

23
00:01:05,650 --> 00:01:08,599
officers , recognizing how they have 

24
00:01:08,610 --> 00:01:10,980
almost the same job I do just on a 

25
00:01:10,989 --> 00:01:13,045
different boat in another country in 

26
00:01:13,045 --> 00:01:14,822
ocean away . And I think that's 

27
00:01:14,822 --> 00:01:17,045
exciting how we can all come together , 

28
00:01:17,045 --> 00:01:19,010
work together for a common mission .
