When we step on the battlefield, I will be The First Boots On and the Last Boots Off. - LtG. Hal Moore

This isn't just about military combat, although hands-on leadership is key to victory in war. This isn't just about leadership, although leading by example creates a degree of loyalty and overall success that cannot be achieved through issuing orders from a lofty office. For each of us, life is the battlefield. The key to success, and to happiness, is being fully engaged in life - leading yourself with inspiration and committed action - setting your own fine and honorable example.
