I have been reading this book for a week now and it is truly eye-opening at how destructive we humans can be. This book was published a little under two years ago. I recommend…

Five Reflections on Being A Corporal

Five Reflections on Being A Corporal

It was an incredible feeling when I was promoted to Corporal then to know that I now became responsible to my Marines. I was now accountable for their chow schedule, counseling, mentorship, and training.

It sounds simple until it’s not. What I mean by that is that I didn’t know what it was like to counsel a Marine, I’ve always been counseled. I didn’t know how to March Marines, or give sound…

What did you do this week? Books:

I finished up Call Sign Chaos by Jim Mattis. This is a phenomenal read and insight into how Mr. Mattis thinks. I gotta say, the book felt like it ended abruptly for some reason. It left me wanting just a tad bit more.

On the recommendation of MGySgt Stephens he recommended the book Bloodlands: Europe Between Hitler and Stalin. It is eye…

What did you do this week? Books:

I’m just about done with Call Sign Chaos by Jim Mattis. This book definitely does not disappoint. He has run through his entire career as a four star General commanding organizations such as NATO Supreme allied command and Joint Forces Command. I’m at the part where he is talking about strategic leadership. I’m sure it will be just as good.
