Here are some thought from more than a half century ago.<br />The same motivation that recruits had in my generation. Belief in something greater than themselves. Dedication to the nation, determination to succeed, to grow physically, emotionally. To learn how to follow, to focus, to always keep in mind that they are part of a team.

When I was first in, leadership wanted you to STFU and do your job, period. Don&#39;t worry about what everyone else is doing. But that has changed. Now the more you know about what is going on and what others are doing around you and why, the better soldier you are going to be. Understand the role you play in your unit! Be aware that what you do and how you do it is important to the successful completion of every mission. You can&#39;t slack off! That&#39;s the words of an old hand! Enjoy the good times and learn from the bad.
