I'll Start. AR 350-1 Appendix G shows all annual mandatory training. AR 600-20 Chapter 4 is Exercise of Military Authority. Article 31 UCMJ is your right to remain silent... Mostly looking for gems buried in our mountains of regs that are useful to line unit NCOs.

SSG Ryan R - As a PSG TC 7-22.7 (FM 7-22.7) should be your best friend. But absolutely stay in 623-3 especially with the newNCOER. Don't focus to much time on 40-501 as a PSG but become familiar because as a 1SG it helps with everything from your ABCP, chapter packets, and reenlistment.

AR 600-20 as it defines that the commander is responsible for a Soldiers well-being. This extends into areas such as spiritual, financial and personal life. When people make their lives the commanders business there is pretty much nothing off-limits if it impacts work.

Yes, I spent time in a lot of regs, but the AR 600-20 turned out to be a wonderful guide for me as a Platoon Sergeant.

The diagram of "underlying logic of Army Leadership" from ADP 6-22 is posted on my wall. Positive influence can reach distances that negative influence never will.

I can't imagine framing any AR and hanging it on the wall. There are too many and they all have their application. I will however share something that guided me: My men will work just as hard for me as I work for them. They were the ones who got things done. It was my job to make sure they had everything they needed to do it: Training, equipment, food, shelter, clothing, medical care, spiritual care, everything, as well as a clear mission and recognition when they accomplished it. They never had to worry about retribution from above me. I was their buffer. But heaven help them, there was no buffer from my displeasure. Often a look is all that was needed. It's the same credo that I lived by as a leader in civilian life.

Depended on the topic. My go to document was the one that provided the policy or doctrine for that topic. Be it 670-1 for uniform or any of the 7 series for leadership.

The best "Go-to" I had was what I called "The Reasonable Man" theory. If something came up I would think on it and ask myself "would a reasonable man make this decision?" The solutions I came up with were often not within the standards of Manuals or Regulations.
I really didn't care.

Give Forscom (FC) 350-1 a try, it goes into so much more detail on Appx G items that are applicable to Forscom Soldiers. You need a CAC to access this reg through the FORSCOM .mil site.
