• 4:55
  Speaker 2: other side of it is the shape of the island.
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: So they got those challenge coins and then the last
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: picture there. I tried to send Festus a gift because
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: he said, you can send things here, let's look at
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: and so I tried to send so he had he said, mom,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: I got my own office here in the medical clinic.
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: And so I was trying to send him like, oh,
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: I thought it'd send him some things from Utah to
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: decorate his office with. Like I was trying to send
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: him like a Utah mousepad or some you know, and
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: he said, Amazon will deliver here. So I went on
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: to Amazon and I wait, they will, yeah, two or
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: three different things. Well that's what I was trying to see,
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: is if they would send him something two or three
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: different things. I tried to click on and send, and
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: you know, when you're filling out the address, there's a
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: line there that says are you in the Armed Services? Well,
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: oh okay, so but for some reason, they won't send
• 5:51
  Speaker 2: just anything. So I tried to send a few things
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: and they're like, we will not deliver this to that.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: So the only thing I could find that they would
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: deliver that was a Utah thing was a bag of
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: those Utah truffles.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I've seen.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Those in the they're like Utah brand truffles and yeah,
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: little chocolates. And for some reason that out of everything
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: I tried to send there, like okay, we'll send that.
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: And this is Festus picture letting me know that yes,
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: your your Utah truffles have arrived and we were enjoying
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: them in the clinic. So I now know I'm able
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: to send maybe some things.
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: These are his shipmates here, yes, so and so is
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: there are there British because it's a British protectorate. Does
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: that mean there are a lot of British.
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: There are British soldiers there, Yeah, and they're like British,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: Like the police force on the island is British. Yeah.
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Like when when Festus sent me a picture showing me
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: he got a bike and there was a bike helmet
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: hanging on it and I said, I'm so proud of you.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: You're wearing a helmet. He said, well, I have to
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: because the British police will give me a five hundred
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: pound ticket if I don't wear.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: My This is all great on Navy Day and everything,
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: but he grew his mustache back.
• 7:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: I was all right, Well, you know, I think it's
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: because he doesn't I think it's because he doesn't want
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: people to look at that haircut. Maybe I was.
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: Gonna talk to him. I don't know why he insists on, yeah.
