QUOTES

02:49 "We met other veterans on set, like yourself, we said hey, come on in. Let's all work as a team. Let's approach the entertainment industry the way we were in the military."

04:06 "It was just so great. It was so great to be us and the industry embracing us, embracing military, embracing law enforcement."

04:37 "We are the penguins of Madagascar in the entertainment industry. Us, our little veteran crew. We don't make any of the movies or television you see. We make them better."

07:27 "We are able to offer the goods and services to the government. And what we help people do is prepare them to write that proposal and win that contracting bid."

10:51 "You may not want to be an actor. What if you want to do set construction? What if you want to be an engineer? What if you want to be lighting? So we would rather develop somebody the right way than say hey, come and be an actor."
