Can you turn the “P” in LPD into “Personal” and do the dog-tag exercise, or perhaps the Great Teams exercise? This would help with team building and personal connections. Just a thought.

brock.j.young replied to the topic Counseling your PSG in the forum Junior Officer 6 years, 5 months ago
It’s a little more than CYA, it also helps you keep grounded as a leader as to what the decision was. What was decided? What was agreed upon?

But you’re correct, the counseling, the…[Read more] -

Digging into my upcoming annual training period (my company has been designated SIM Cell and OPFOR… yes, I bought a special uniform) I wanted to throw another point out another thing that would greatly help out commanders and PLs; go to your local Training Support Center (TSC).

@bmcgarry,
Very good point about the 1059s. As a former BN S1, I always told the unit’s to PERM the doc as soon as the SM gets back, but then that is also an ARNG thing. -
leromt replied to the topic NCOs and Officers in the forum Junior Officer 6 years, 6 months ago
As an NCO for close to 10 years and then an officer for 16 more, here is my take:
