Officer moments that display a testament that NCOs have trained you well!

For example, I was in my office as a company commander at Fort Lee and my 1SG who is now a SGM who happens to be the finest NCO that ever trained me. He was in top notch shape and physical training was his utmost concern, to say the least!  It was his lifestyle!  He came into my office one afternoon and stated in words to the effect, "Sir, our civilian supply tech is working out in our recovery room!  They are really getting a good work out in right now!  I am impressed!" I immediately, said, "Top, check this out!  Do you realize that they are a disabled veteran and park in a disabled parking spot everyday?" "Do you realize if they get injured on our watch that we will be held responsible?"-----He replied, "Sir, that is exactly why you are the commander and I will take care of it right now!"  

It was not so much the actual event that told me that I had been trained; it was the simple fact that non-commissioned officers taught me to pay my undivided attention to the safety and well-being of others!  Hands down it confirmed the things or lessons that he and many other NCOs had conveyed to me through my experience as a young officer.  

Great NCOs are the personnel that train Soldiers, junior NCOs, and all Officers to become great!  Sometimes they do it without others even knowing it!

I will say this isn't the only moment, however it was one one to remember!
