You just shake some hands,

you take some pictures,
you open some wallets--

Okay, it's a little
like that.

I don't know.

361
00:13:58,359 --> 00:14:01,710
[sighs]
I might.

362
00:14:01,753 --> 00:14:03,451
Stay here, I'll be right back.

363
00:14:03,494 --> 00:14:05,322
I want to come with you.No.

364
00:14:05,366 --> 00:14:07,542
I need you to record
Uncle Al's speech

365
00:14:07,585 --> 00:14:08,935
so that Dad can watch it later.

366
00:14:08,978 --> 00:14:10,632
That's the mission.
Can you handle it?

367
00:14:10,675 --> 00:14:12,155
Yes, ma'am.Okay.

368
00:14:13,940 --> 00:14:15,985
[exhales]

369
00:14:16,029 --> 00:14:17,813
I guess you were right.

370
00:14:17,857 --> 00:14:19,815
I wish I wasn't.

371
00:14:19,859 --> 00:14:24,167
[vocalizing]

372
00:14:24,211 --> 00:14:25,299
What are you doing?

373
00:14:25,342 --> 00:14:26,735
I'm warming up my instrument.

374
00:14:26,778 --> 00:14:30,130
[continues vocalizing]

375
00:14:35,744 --> 00:14:38,094
Oh, great.

376
00:14:47,408 --> 00:14:50,019
Mind if I join you?

377
00:14:50,063 --> 00:14:52,630
How'd you know?
Hmm.

378
00:14:52,674 --> 00:14:56,199
You have three spots you go to
when you're freaking out.

379
00:14:56,243 --> 00:14:59,028
And the strip club
burned down.

380
00:15:00,595 --> 00:15:02,640
Now I'm freaking out
about two things.

381
00:15:04,773 --> 00:15:06,949
Hydrate.

382
00:15:09,169 --> 00:15:10,692
Aspirin.

383
00:15:12,085 --> 00:15:15,218
One bacon cheeseburger,
extra greasy.

384
00:15:15,262 --> 00:15:18,047
Aw. You're the best
almost ex-wife ever.

385
00:15:18,091 --> 00:15:19,657
[chuckles]

386
00:15:23,618 --> 00:15:27,187
Um, you gonna try to
guilt me into going back?

387
00:15:27,230 --> 00:15:28,666
Nope.

388
00:15:29,841 --> 00:15:32,583
You gonna tell me I need to
get checked out at the V.A.?

389
00:15:32,627 --> 00:15:35,630
[laughs softly]
Nope.

390
00:15:37,110 --> 00:15:38,981
Then what do you want?

391
00:15:40,722 --> 00:15:43,594
I want my daughter's
father to be okay.

392
00:15:46,293 --> 00:15:48,164
So...

393
00:15:49,339 --> 00:15:52,647
So I'm just gonna sit here
with you for a while.

394
00:16:01,177 --> 00:16:02,744
[exhales]

395
00:16:10,273 --> 00:16:11,666
Mmm.

396
00:16:14,495 --> 00:16:15,757
You want a bite?

397
00:16:16,714 --> 00:16:18,978
Not for a million dollars.

398
00:16:21,850 --> 00:16:23,983
Before we get to the main event,

399
00:16:24,026 --> 00:16:25,810
how about another
big hand for Lizzie Dugan

400
00:16:25,854 --> 00:16:28,683
for putting together
that slideshow.

401
00:16:28,726 --> 00:16:31,512
[laughs]
It's so sad how good this feels.

402
00:16:32,904 --> 00:16:36,038
And before we introduce
tonight's honorees,

403
00:16:36,082 --> 00:16:39,128
I would like to take a moment
to thank my beautiful wife.

404
00:16:39,172 --> 00:16:41,130
Crystal, come on.
Come on, stand up.

405
00:16:41,174 --> 00:16:43,350
Take a bow.
[chuckles][applause]

406
00:16:43,393 --> 00:16:44,394
I had to keep her

407
00:16:44,438 --> 00:16:46,266
on the down-low until 2011.

408
00:16:46,309 --> 00:16:48,268
So now it's,
"You don't ask, I do tell."

409
00:16:48,311 --> 00:16:49,791
'Cause I tell everybody.
I mean, come on.

410
00:16:49,834 --> 00:16:51,053
Look at her.
Come on.

411
00:16:52,489 --> 00:16:54,056
Anyhoo.

412
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:57,538
It is my pleasure
to introduce an exceptional man

413
00:16:57,581 --> 00:17:00,149
who fought alongside
our men and women,

414
00:17:00,193 --> 00:17:02,499
Mr. Awalmir Karimi.

415
00:17:02,543 --> 00:17:05,372
[applause]

416
00:17:05,415 --> 00:17:07,635
Whoo! Go get 'em, Uncle Al.

417
00:17:07,678 --> 00:17:09,376
Thank you, Gunny.Keep it clean.

418
00:17:10,333 --> 00:17:12,292
[clears throat]

419
00:17:12,335 --> 00:17:15,686
Hello. Uh, good evening.

420
00:17:17,340 --> 00:17:20,343
Thank you for this
wonderful honor.

421
00:17:21,562 --> 00:17:24,173
I read a book on giving
speeches, and it suggested

422
00:17:24,217 --> 00:17:26,175
opening with a joke.

423
00:17:26,219 --> 00:17:28,395
Oh, boy.

424
00:17:28,438 --> 00:17:31,224
But I'm not going to.

425
00:17:31,267 --> 00:17:33,052
Because there is
nothing funny about

426
00:17:33,095 --> 00:17:37,665
the 17,000 Afghan interpreters
still waiting for visas

427
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:39,232
which were promised to them.

428
00:17:40,363 --> 00:17:43,540
When we decided to join
the U.S. forces,

429
00:17:43,584 --> 00:17:46,543
we were not only
risking our lives,

430
00:17:46,587 --> 00:17:50,243
we were putting the lives
of our families in danger.

431
00:17:50,286 --> 00:17:54,638
We were the eyes and ears
of American troops.

432
00:17:55,987 --> 00:18:00,992
And that is what the Taliban
called us, "the eyes."

433
00:18:01,036 --> 00:18:03,647
On missions, I would hear them
over the radio say,

434
00:18:03,691 --> 00:18:06,650
"Shoot the eyes first."

435
00:18:08,130 --> 00:18:11,264
And a lot of times they did.

436
00:18:13,222 --> 00:18:14,571
But not me.

437
00:18:18,184 --> 00:18:23,102
My friend Riley saved my life
on three separate occasions.

438
00:18:23,145 --> 00:18:25,756
Twice from gunfire,

439
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:28,455
once from red tape.

440
00:18:29,456 --> 00:18:31,936
He got my
visa application out

441
00:18:31,980 --> 00:18:33,590
from whatever pile
it was buried under

442
00:18:33,634 --> 00:18:35,897
and brought me to America.

443
00:18:37,725 --> 00:18:40,423
And I know he doesn't like
to be called a hero,

444
00:18:40,467 --> 00:18:44,123
but the interpreters who don't
have a friend like him...

445
00:18:45,863 --> 00:18:49,040
...are probably not going
to make it here.

446
00:18:53,306 --> 00:18:56,439
So, if he won't let me
call him a hero...

447
00:18:58,659 --> 00:19:00,704
...I will call him my brother.

448
00:19:03,881 --> 00:19:09,017
And now, if you will allow me,
a song.

449
00:19:11,150 --> 00:19:12,760
Lizzie, if you please?
