Hi . I'm Staff Sergeant Raven Drift

00:02.000 --> 00:03.944
Meyer . And I am a traffic manager

00:03.944 --> 00:06.167
Actually thought about during the guard

00:06.167 --> 00:08.111
when I was a lot younger because I

00:08.111 --> 00:10.333
would take , or my dad would take me to

00:10.333 --> 00:12.500
his shop all the time and I would meet

00:12.500 --> 00:14.556
like everyone he worked with , and I

00:14.556 --> 00:14.440
would kind of see , like , some of what

00:14.440 --> 00:17.080
he would do on his day to day and then

00:17.080 --> 00:18.969
just kind of seeing how everybody

00:18.969 --> 00:20.913
talked to him and kind of how they

00:20.913 --> 00:22.913
respected him . I like that . And I

00:22.913 --> 00:25.136
kind of wanted that for myself . I feel

00:25.136 --> 00:27.302
like the drift Myers have made kind of

00:27.302 --> 00:29.469
impact . And , you know , everywhere I

00:29.469 --> 00:31.469
go and they see my last name , they

00:31.469 --> 00:33.636
either like , Oh , yeah , your grandpa

00:33.636 --> 00:35.691
was out here , or they say something

00:35.691 --> 00:37.747
like , Oh , yeah , you're drifting ,

00:37.747 --> 00:39.858
daughter . Like they kind of know who

00:39.858 --> 00:41.969
we are . Continuing the legacy for me

00:41.969 --> 00:44.136
really means a lot . Um , but it makes

00:44.136 --> 00:46.080
me really proud that I'm making my

00:46.080 --> 00:48.136
grandfather and my dad proud of what

00:48.136 --> 00:50.247
I'm doing on . I really hope when I'm

00:50.247 --> 00:52.247
older , my kids join . You know , I

00:52.247 --> 00:54.247
served for my family . I wanna make

00:54.247 --> 00:56.413
them all proud . and I think I'm doing

00:56.413 --> 00:58.524
a really good job at it , and I wanna

00:58.524 --> 00:59.350
make sure I continue to do it .
