Share a story: SrA Littrell and his willingness to volunteer to stay longer in Kuwait. That is when I knew you were always going to be successful in life because you were willing to sacrifice for your fellow airmen. Great assignment – Each one afforded me the chance to work with some amazing people across all of the services. The greatest lesson learned was the importance of service to others (servant leadership). If you genuinely care for your fellow soldier, sailor, airman, marine or coastie, then you will gain the trust and respect of others and your unit will benefit from everyone’s success. When you are willing to sacrifice for others, then we will know that you are attempting to make the best decision for your organization. In the end, you will walk away from your military service with very few regrets.
