combat actions when faced with general military ethics situations. Finally, I will examine how my own leadership abilities, though noncombat focused, compare to how Chesty led his marines. Let’s begin by exploring the visionary leadership that Lt Gen Puller exhibited. Lieutenant General Lewis B. “Chesty” Puller, through dedication to his mission and the welfare of his marines, was a visionary leader even by today’s standards.

We’re not Millennials, not every individual born within this almost twenty year timespan will be the same, certainly not those born during the beginning compared to those born at the end. What she does that I find interesting is breaking up the years

When I got my class list that year, I wasn’t expecting much. I was in a class with a group of girls who had been best friends since kindergarten.

Taken together, this new sub-genre of the super-genre provides a personal glimpse into many historically tragic, enlightening, or revolutionary events.
