A whole lot of men I learned from during my service, were personally mentored by one of the most brilliant men I have ever met.
GEN Peter Schoomaker not only commanded SOF elements from the small unit level all the way up to USSOCOM, but he was also called back to active duty from retirement to serve as Chief of Staff of the Army, early in the war.
His set of rules are a simple example of his leadership philosophy. I hope you gain from them as much as so many others have.
