#ForceDesignFriday How many Marines are in an infantry squad? A topic of debate for decades. For Force Design 2030, the infantry squad went from 13 to 15. https://lnkd.in/enPhYzex But it wasn't always that way. As the USMC reduced infantry squads from 13 to 11 in the mid-1980s while increasing firepower 25%, the service returned to 13 members under General Kelley, as indicated in the November 1985 issues of "Marines" (Vol. XIV, No.11). If one reads carefully, the service divested of future capabilities to invest in current capabilities, specifically personnel structure, understanding the future capabilities wouldn't be available to the Marine Corps for a few years. History doesn't repeat, but it often rhymes... What will Force Design 2050 look like? #Marines #USMC #ForceDesign #military #Defense #strategy #people #infantry #squad

🇺🇸 Hire A Veteran! Id like to honor our veterans — and recognize the tremendous value they bring to the workforce. As a veteran, I believe hiring veterans is a strategic advantage. Here’s why we need to hire more veterans: 1. Proven Leadership - Veterans know how to lead and inspire teams under pressure. 2. Adaptability - They’re skilled problem-solvers, ready to face any challenge. 3. Strong Work Ethic - Veterans bring discipline, reliability, and dedication to every mission. 4. Technical Skills - Many have specialized training directly applicable to our industry. 5. Commitment to Service - Veterans are driven by purpose and a sense of duty. This Veterans Day, let’s go beyond gratitude. Let’s bring these talented individuals into our teams and benefit from the unique strengths they offer. #VeteransDay #HireVeterans #NickelHaydenAdvisors #Leadership #WorkEthic

In times of loss, it can be overwhelming to know how to support one another. We often find ourselves searching for the right words or actions. However, we have a chance to make a meaningful impact in the life of a family experiencing unexpected grief. Let’s come together as a community to offer our support through donations, sharing their story, or even both. Each action can provide comfort and relief during such a difficult time. As we navigate this together, let’s also remember the importance of checking in on one another. A simple message or gesture can make all the difference. Together, we can help lighten the burden and strengthen our bonds as a community.

1 year at Cameron-Brooks, Inc. Thankful for the entire team here (and all my other mentors)! 10 lessons I learned in Year 1 of Biz (Written to myself): 1. The transition was hard. Harder than you thought it would be, but so rewarding. You did it. You laid the foundation of your career brick by brick, with the help of so many others. 2. Mentors can make the difference. You have that all around you, organic and inorganic to the organization. Joel Junker, and Pete Van Epps: Thank you. 3. You will feel an itch. You will feel The Dip. In fact, you already have. The honeymoon wore off quickly. Work is work, so remember why you joined this organization. 4. It takes time. Don’t expect to be an expert right away. You will learn more in your first year, and in the first 5 years of your career, if you let it. 5. Embrace the Growth Mindset. Pound a stake in the ground right now. Commit to the mindset that you will never arrive. There’s so much you don’t know. 6. Add value where you can. Little things add up to the big things! 7. The sharpest, brightest, most intellectual, wise, and humble leaders you’ve met, listened to, and spoken to, have at least one thing (if not many) in common: They are READERS! 8. Be intellectually curious. LEARN 9. “Big Ears, Big Eyes, Itty Bitty Mouth”. 10. You are standing on the shoulders of giants. Your individual success is built upon the knowledge, achievements, and innovations of those who have gone before you. Those ahead of you have already done more for you than you realize. 11. Remember, working is important. Work can be – AND IS – a vehicle for things more important.
