I’m wondering if this is a bit of a misquote. The 25 year period interestingly is the same as the existence of the Army Air Corp[0]. 25 years after 1947 would be 1972, and infer that the Air Force hasn’t yet figure out their mission through the Vietnam War, Minuteman missile development and emplacement, or most of the Cold War.

I personally think that the Space Force should have remained part of the Air Force until more capabilities were developed and a sense of mission.

As far as I can find, only two members of the Space Force have been to space[1]. I’m not sure there would have been support for the creation of the Air Force if only two Army Air Corp pilots had completed missions yet.

A difference is that along the non-urban sections of the US-Mexico border, a wall needs to prevent individual persons from crossing. In Baghdad, the reason for division was to prevent large munitions, vehicle borne IEDs, and scattered gunfire.

In summary, walls can be effective, and they exist where needed along the US-Mexico border. A grand, glorious, wall in the middle of nowhere will not be helpful.

Interestingly, this was a management team read at my current employer. It isn’t seen as the only way to manage - more of a kick to have people own more of their responsibilities rather than deferring to others.

Promote yourself - meh “just become an influencer and pick a new job”

Extreme Ownership - good “navy seal war story -> leadership principle -> business application” x12

Rise - good “wow I have an easy life”

Drive - good “some people like doing stuff just because”

The Accounting Game - good “money explained to a kid to make you feel vetter about not understanding money”

"Soak a few zeros" for example going from 1,000 calls per second to 1,000,000 calls per second.

So for 32oz, that 986mg sodium, and 24g sugar, which seems spot on to the articles recommended ratios.

[39] In an attempt to determine why the plants had survived the herbicide spraying, Mr. Schmeiser conducted a test in field 2. Using his sprayer, he sprayed, with Roundup herbicide, a section of that field in a strip along the road. He made two passes with his sprayer set to spray 40 feet, the first weaving between and around the power poles, and the second beyond but adjacent to the first pass in the field, and parallel to the power poles. This was said by him to be some three to four acres in all, or "a good three acres". After some days, approximately 60% of the plants earlier sprayed had persisted and continued to grow. Mr. Schmeiser testified that these plants grew in clumps which were thickest near the road and began to thin as one moved farther into the field.

[40] Despite this result Mr. Schmeiser continued to work field 2, and, at harvest, Carlysle Moritz, on instruction from Mr. Schmeiser, swathed and combined field 2. He included swaths from the surviving canola seed along the roadside in the first load of seed in the combine which he emptied into an old Ford truck located in the field. That truck was covered with a tarp and later it was towed to one of Mr. Schmeiser's outbuildings at Bruno. In the spring of 1998 the seed from the old Ford truck was taken by Mr. Schmeiser in another truck to the Humboldt Flour Mill ("HFM") for treatment. After that, Mr. Schmeiser's testimony is that the treated seed was mixed with some bin-run seed and fertilizer and then used for planting his 1998 canola crop.

I'm moving from a large organization to a smaller one, by an order of magnitude or more, so I'm looking forward to having the ability to know everyone on some level and be able to reach out directly when needed.
