That is very good post, I am very glad I have stumbled across this. I appreciate you taking the time to write this out and I am going to print this out and give a copy to my soldiers as well as keep a copy for myself. Thank you!

Thank you SF Leatherneck, this is one of the most inspiring reads I have found on this site. I have taken this to heart and printed it out and stapled it against my head board and read it every night. This should be a requirement for alld DEP's to read BEFORE even posting anything on this site.

Thank you
