I had the opportunity to 01:15.630 --> 01:18.670 deploy with the first TSC forward team 01:18.680 --> 01:21.340 where we were planning for the CINCO 01:21.350 --> 01:24.640 and Arson Ao our lines of efforts was 01:24.650 --> 01:26.770 able to experience how to plan for 01:26.780 --> 01:29.590 humanitarian missions .

But don't worry we work hard 01:51.740 --> 01:53.960 but we also play hard . Fort Knox and 01:53.960 --> 01:56.710 the surrounding community have a never 01:56.720 --> 01:59.590 ending amount of entertainment and 01:59.590 --> 02:01.646 activities for you and your family . 02:01.646 --> 02:03.830 Honestly , before I came here , I 02:03.830 --> 02:06.390 thought Fort Knox what I'm gonna do in 02:06.390 --> 02:09.830 Kentucky . Once I got to Fort Knox , I 02:09.830 --> 02:12.320 realized there's a lot of things to do 02:12.320 --> 02:14.900 in Kentucky . Soldiers have a lot to 02:14.900 --> 02:17.011 look forward to here . On Fort Knox , 02:17.011 --> 02:19.210 the city of Louisville is just a short 02:19.220 --> 02:22.510 drive away . Many of our soldiers have 02:22.520 --> 02:24.850 chosen to live in the Louisville area 02:24.860 --> 02:26.971 during their time here . Fort Knox is 02:26.971 --> 02:30.190 also close to ST louis Nashville and 02:30.190 --> 02:32.440 more . We also have our own school 02:32.440 --> 02:34.560 right here on post .

Your kids can go to school 02:40.970 --> 02:43.280 right here on the post . My family and 02:43.280 --> 02:45.224 I try to take advantage of all the 02:45.224 --> 02:47.058 opportunities that Fort Knox and 02:47.058 --> 02:49.230 surrounding area off to us .
