Teammates,
An attitude of gratitude! Hunt the good stuff! That’s what I’m thinking in the middle of this hot summer. I’m especially thankful and proud of serving with all of you: our Soldiers, Army Civilians, and Families.

CHARLOTTE, NC. — On June 5, 2021, Family, friends, and colleagues of three U.S. Army Reserve Soldiers came together at 108th Training Command (Initial Entry Training) to celebrate their accomplishments and watch them take the next steps into Army retirement.

Leading the Iroquois Warrior Division has been a privilege and honor of a lifetime. I want to thank each of you for serving with me during the last two years. As I look back, we accomplished much together, and I want to thank you for moving forward with me in my vision to focus on producing drill sergeants and improving the support we provide to Fort Benning, Fort Jackson and other Reserve units in our footprint.
