Who is a leader in history (military, American, or world history) that you look up to? Why do you look up to them? Admirable leaders often have qualities like unwavering integrity, dedicatin to service, inspiring vision, and the ability to take responsibility.
How do you model them compared to your own leadership?

There are several for me (in no particular order) between 1993 to current:
CSM(R) Terry Murphy. He was my Drill Sergeant in Basic Training and would not let me quit.
CSM Dan Fairfield: One of the most squared away SNCOs I've had the honor of knowing. Always a mentor. Offered to grade a paper I am to write when I finally get to the USASMA
CSM Robert Ryan: Just like CSM Fairfield.
SFC(R) Doug Merrell: One of, if not THE best Platoon Sergeant I ever had. Spared no time for BS.
LTC(R) Virginia Griffin: Best damn nurse I have ever worked for. Prior enlisted. Always for the Troops.
There are many others, but I would be here for a week if I were to try and list them all.

I look up to four star General Charles Evans, the four-star general and lawyer throughout the Civil War who created a freight camp called Fort Devens In Massachusetts, many have heard of that place. It is now decommissioned and it’s traditional days of a camp was more of the civil war, and this was heavily used for law and like I said freightliners, which are still active at that pace to this day, just not used as much, but the law sure is! I lived on one of the federal roads over there. The army owns a lot of the buildings down the street but I’ve seen a thing or two in the building next-door where I was as well in a hospital setting where I lived with even multiple wounded warriors from navy to army to other branches I would see in and out of there. So I always researched the place a lot and then later on in life, they were planning on me being in an exhibition for the actual museum of the decommissioned military base due to a book I wrote on this general and other subject content! After these events occurred, I had to speak with the United States Army Garrison, because something went wrong, where I was living just as a civilian. I have to add then I was brought to the state police barracks of the former military base to take care of it through them and I just spoke with the place just the other day I always do. I’m funny. I get them to laugh pretty good no matter what’s really going on. Thank you for sharing, sir. I like this.
