SGT Calvert Stone 143793 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>When i was an NCO I always treated my soldiers as if they were members of my own family, and I was very protective of them. I feel like that mindset has gone out of the window in today's military. What are your thoughts? Biggest family in the world. 2014-06-04T17:20:45-04:00 SGT Calvert Stone 143793 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>When i was an NCO I always treated my soldiers as if they were members of my own family, and I was very protective of them.

Even after Soldiers are no longer serve with me I still do my best to help them out. I have put in several retroactive awards of the CAB for Soldiers who qualified but were not put in for it before the ETSed.<br /><br />I see it less and less these days, in my opinion this is because a central selection board doesn't know you, they only see your file and it's hard to put taking care of Soldiers on your ERB.

I treat my soldiers like family as well. We are a dying breed but it shouldnt be this way.
