I have said before and I'll say it again;

Where do we find men like these.
I think I know;

They are volunteers & patriots, and there is nothing stronger than a volunteer patriot!

God Bless guys, good luck & happy hunting! shoot fast, straight and of fen!

SEMPER FI!

God bless and protect all of them.

Through my tears I say thank your for this post and thank God for these young men and women. I wish I could hug every one of them. But since I can't I pray for them and their families every day.

And officers like that who marvel at their troops are some of the gems of our nation.

Agree. I have seen a few of these officers in my time. Work with the Enlisted and NCO's.

They know when to lead and when to follow.

They know how to earn respect and how to show it.

They know that the MEN ARE the Army.

Generals only give orders, but men carry them out.
