As a lieutenant, I often find myself in peculiar situations when it comes to leadership. “LTs” are required to be leaders, while at the same time soaking in all of the lessons provided to us by senior NCOs and senior officers.

Since taking command on June 10th, I’ve had the pleasure of meeting many of the great Airmen from the 86th Airlift Wing. It is a privilege to serve with you, the men and women who provide combat airlift and operate the Air Force’s premier installation to enable and assure strategic capabilities.

This old proverb illustrates how the failure of a simple task — the shoeing of a horse — can have dire consequences for a larger mission: the prosecution of a battle.

We all have our bumps in the road. Some are minor speed humps and others are gaping potholes. Those are times where it seems there is nowhere to turn. But it isn’t about what got us there; it’s about what brought us back that counts and makes us resilient Airmen.

“All that you do, do it with your might. Things by half are never done right.”
My father taught me this quote and made me commit it to memory when I was a child. His father encouraged him to live by that same principle.
