Bob was my boss. I can say I always tried to support him, even though I was Army and he was Navy.
The 3 accused me of supporting Army over Bob, I said Bob was my boss, I will do what he says. If the Army asks about my Task Force decision I will tell them to refer to the Ground commander as I did not have that interaction.
Bob held things close to his chest, but I would work for him again.

I hear you loud and clear. Harward is a man for whom would ‘ride into hell’ with. those leaders are truly rare.
