The Branch

The Armor Branch Chief came down today to talk with all the Armor Officers in the Brigade. It was a good discussion and like most Armor/Cavalry Officer gatherings, the beer was provided free of charge. To give an idea of the culture, half of the attendees were wearing black stetsons with crossed sabers on the front, two thirds were sipping on a beer, and the chief delivering the brief went through two beers during his discussion.

The topic was career progression and really focused on seeking positions not directly related to employing tactics (fighting), in order to make yourself a more well rounded officer, and ultimately more prepared for positions of higher command.

I also finished my FLIPL today, pending the boss' approval.
