"Continuous transformation involves staying ahead of emerging threats and ensuring our forces are equipped with the latest advancements in a world where new technology arrives daily," said CSM Brian Hester in our latest Muddy Boots article! Read here: armyupress.army.mil/Journals/NCO-J…

"Writing for publication is a new experience for many, one that can be intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be.... Professional writing is a journey. The first steps don’t need to be perfect—they just need to be in the right direction." mwi.westpoint.edu/war-books-hard…

Today, the @USArmySMA and @_HardingProject announced the Launch of Muddy Boots, a subsection of the @NCOJournal in which senior enlisted leaders share their experiences. It’s a pretty awesome article. Give it a read and let me know what you think. “There is no place to hide on the battlefield with current technology, and the speed at which the cat-and-mouse game continuously adjusts is outpacing our ability to update our doctrine. The cost of not being genuinely ready when we meet a near-peer enemy is too high to allow only a veneer of readiness. Readiness must be tangible, concrete, and stubborn, driven by disciplined leaders at echelon who understand the consequence of facing a lethal enemy with artificial readiness.” armyupress.army.mil/Journals/NCO-J…
