    • CPT David Weart (@dweart19),

      My name is Logan Hunt and a senior cadet at Wright State University (WSU) located in Dayton, Ohio. I am currently the Battalion Commander for WSU Army ROTC. Prior to listening to this episode on the Leader’s Huddle Podcast, I established a Leadership Development Program for the third year cadets. This program would accelerate the process of transitioning from a junior cadet to a senior cadet/2LT. This program includes various mentorship lessons, essays, and personal reflection. Moreover, I also instituted a new Battalion Commanders Reading List. Upon listening to this episode of the podcast, I found a few new books to read myself and possibly place within the reading list.

      The first book I selected for the reading list is Chasing Excellence by Ben Bergeron. This book depicts the journey of various athletes in the 2016 CrossFit Games and their coaching methodology provided by coach Ben Bergeron. The coaching methodology can be applied to numerous fields such as a military officer, sports athletes, or entrepreneurs. As a cadet/2LT, the book provides multiple scenarios where mental fortitude, self-reflection, and humility blend very well into physical training.

      I just wanted to share that this episode has helped provide new flavor into my Leadership Development Program for WSU Army ROTC. Notably, the information shared by CPT Klien, CPT Bowen, and CPT Mierva on the shorter version of reading lists for a younger generation of military service members using podcasts, audiobooks, and short stories, and articles.

      Very Respectfully,

      Cadet Logan R. Hunt

    • CDT Hunt, @loganrhunt

      That’s awesome news. We are glad this episode resonated with you and your ROTC BN.

    • @dweart19 – Can this post be edited so that authors? It would help everyone be on a common ground of what the source is (for example, I’m guessing “Artemis” by Andy Weir? Great book.). If someone can’t listen to the podcast they could still get a taste for the content.

      Love that the sources are listed for the pods – great idea! Maybe doesn’t apply to every episode, but it’s great to be able to listen to a discussion, and then have a ‘cheatsheet’ for the resources discussed to then double back on the topic via self-reflection.

    • @ae_rollinson. Yes, I can repost that with authors.
      Thanks for the feedback.
