“Over 2400 years ago, the Greek Historian Herodotus wrote a ‘History of the Persian Wars’ so that ’men’s actions may not be effaced by time nor the great and wondrous deeds’ of ’the Greeks be deprived of renown, Since that time countless writers have attempted to capture the essence of the great captains. In virtually every case great leaders have been those who gave extra effort and sought out challenge in all forms. There are no short cuts and sadly no easy ways to selfless leadership. Leadership is to be learned from experience and from study, toil, trial and error. The good things in life are worth striving for and nothing is more rewarding than leading soldiers.””
