Too bad thai this writer knows very Little about military sociology. The a Lilion ship that exists Between soldiers especially those in combat combat units is one of the strongest human relationships often exceeding love. It is by its , very pos to Shive. Military history is filled with Mili tary units that look the name of their commander. If i am a company commander it is my company. I look after my soldiers provide for them rain them punish them Lead them into combat necessary. J Hope my soldiers have enough Pride in their commanding officer co to say me is Rny this feeling of Possession belonging occurs naturally As soon As men group together to attack or defend. In his closing sentence this first ser Gcarl slates that he docs not want to get caught up in remarks or actions that Lead loan Altitude or superiority. If i am a unit commander i want every one of my soldiers to feel thai lie s in the Best outfit in the whole Damn army. 1 want him 10 feel so Superior about himself his buddies his cos officers thai his unit alone can drive the enemy All the Way to Siberia. I Hope soldiers of All rinks use the word my even More when they say my sergeant major or my clerk or my less sergeant or my co they take Pride in spying it. Opt. Frank e. Povolny or. Wutrzbure., Germany. All of us regardless of rank arc it conscience of the army no one should aspire to be a Leader nor feel Tinl he is a Leader who does not fee a responsibility for his soldiers his com his his when 1 entered the . Army air corps in i93h, my Squadron commander had the authority to provide for my welfare. He could pay me feed me clothe me. House me promote me reduce me. There was n mutually supporting relation ship. He look care of me 1 therefore owed him a responsibility to do my Best to accomplish what he ordered me to do. This Bond was More than my aviation Mechanic my Squadron com for Lack of a better word Lei s just Call it the glue of Aspril de corps Hinl wonderful intangible hut makes my company my co instead of just an other unit or organic Iran. The army is Noi some nameless faceless thing it s you when you Are in combat your soldiers look at you with the unspoken question what do we do sergeant you Are the army for their lives arc in your hands. For the past 10 years this Bond be tween the Leader the led has been dangerously weakened in the name of efficiency a condition that could will have tragic consequences on future battlefields.

All Stu dents can participate in Quality leadership conferences drama of cols a Model uni cd nations that attracts schools from the slates debate tournaments business conferences a wide Range of athletic cams plus Field trips to places most americans never see. The opportunities Are a major Factor in the admissions process of Many universities. It it to be admired hut it Many it Denu Lake part in these activities even when it Many hours of work to their Day increases academic pressure. They learn hat education is a lifelong activity not confined to Lily to the classroom. My Heartfelt thanks to the teachers administrators who Ajlan support these activities from funding Ali Jelics to support ing the Challenge summer science program. These opportunities put Dodds on a Par with excellent private schools with out them education becomes a sterile isolated Endeavor.
