I often get asked what my time in the military has taught me, and how I translate it to a civilian career. The answer is simple - I'm part of a mission far greater than myself. My role has been small, but necessary. Every C-130 you see effortlessly soaring across the sky has a dedicated team of professionals behind it, working tirelessly toward a common goal. Pilots to control it. Flight Engineers to navigate it. Crew Chiefs to maintain it. Loadmasters to secure it. Flight medics to occupy it. Security Forces to protect it. Air Traffic Controllers to get it home safely. Fuelers & Munitions Specialists to make it all possible again. If you think you can do this alone, whatever the task, you will fail. If you can understand your role in a greater mission, you cannot fail.

Why don't elite soldiers and Navy SEALs have physiques like Dwayne Johnson or Vin Diesel? The bodybuilder physique is good for two things, moving heavy weight and looking good on stage. Soldiers, especially in Special Operations need to do much more than simply lift heavy weight. It is much more of an endurance event than anything else. During my time in Special Forces, I went out on many combat operations, many of them were period of darkness raids with a helicopter infil. We would typically get dropped off 1–3k away from the objective then walk, with around 90–110 lbs of gear, to where we need to be. Once we get there you are clearing the objective with this weight on your back but at a slower pace. After the objective has been cleared and whatever the main objective of the mission is complete, you walk back to a Helicopter Landing Zone to be picked up. This type of physical output is low and slow. You are carrying heavy weight but simply walking for hours on end and are under the 90–110 lb load for 6–8 hours depending on the mission. The individuals who look like Dwayne Johnson or Vin Diesel do very poorly in this environment. Not because they can’t carry the weight (they clearly can) but they don’t have the endurance to maintain it over a long period of time, often in a very hot environment. Excess muscle is very expensive when it comes to energy consumption and the ‘Ironman’ body-types perform much better in this environment. Read more>>> https://lnkd.in/giDt8uFP

The importance of ensuring you listen to those you lead.
I had the honor last week of awarding Corporal Barbieri, Truck Company, Headquarters Battalion, 2d Marine Division the Meritorious Service Medal. No, this isn't a typo!! According to the Marine Corps' Awards Branch, our motivator is only the second Corporal (since at least 2008 when our awards system was integrated online), to receive this level award. Now many are probably wondering, what jaw-dropping achievement resulted in a Corporal receiving an MSM? Before I answer... here's where the story becomes even more interesting: Technically he was a Lance Corporal at the time of his achievements!! So the real question is how did a Lance Corporal become the first to receive an MSM? As captured in his summary of action and citation, Corporal Barbieri identified the a critical need to properly replace the Joint Light Tactical Vehicle's (JLTV) steering column in order to prevent future catastrophic failures that were likely to result in loss of life or equipment. Through his own initiative, he began working with Oshkosh Truck Corporation, the United States Army, and the Marine Corps Program Offices where he then identified numerous additional shortfalls and inconsistencies throughout the original fielded technical manual for the JLTV family of vehicles. Corporal Barbieri then stunned their engineers with his brilliance and change proposals for both fabrication of new vehicle components and for updating the electronic maintenance manuals that are now published and being fielded by the program office across all military branches of service. All in all, Marine Corps Systems Command has verified (using approved acquisition and cost saving tables) that Corporal Barbieri's redesigns have reduced massive amounts of maintenance downtime, improved operating costs, while also substantially improving the safety of both the maintenance and operation of the JLTV to the jaw-dropping amount of $140M saved across the Department of Defense and an estimated reduction of 900,000 maintenance hours annually. So please join me in congratulating Corporal Barbieri for his exceptional professionalism, personal initiative, and selfless dedication, and for becoming the Marine Corps' second Corporal to receive an MSM.

Awards should never be based on rank...

Our mtu Series 199 has written an unrivalled success story with around 4000 units produced since 2000. Now a more powerful member will become part of the engine family: The future 10-cylinder variant will cover a power range of up to 1100 kW and will also be able to power vehicles weighing 50 to 70 tonnes. The 6- and 8-cylinder variants are used, for example, in the Boxer 8x8 wheeled vehicle, the tracked vehicles based on the ASCOD platform; the Ajax family vehicles; the next generation of US combat vehicles such as the M10 Booker; and the Borsuk infantry fighting vehicle. With outputs from 260 to 800 kW it is well known in many military land defence programmes and has proven itself in all extreme climatic conditions in more than 15 countries. The logistical uniformity, with identical components within this engine family from the 6-cylinder to the 10-cylinder variants, will help the armed forces to significantly reduce their logistics costs. Thanks to the modular design principle of the mtu Series 199 and its compact dimensions, the 10-cylinder engine can be used not only for new vehicles but also for the repowering of existing vehicles. #governmental #landdefence #mtusolutions

Cost schedule and performance needs to be reimagined!!! This Marine drove down cost, accelerated schedule, and enhanced performance! He was VERY appropriately awarded for his actions. THIS is how we should judge everyone in Budget, acquistion, program management etc. fields!

At the time LCPL (E-3), now CPL is awarded the Meritorious Defense Medal. A medal you only see on the ribbon rack of command-level E-9s and O-5+. Why does he get one? This Marine, most likely still in his first contract (< 6 years in), identified discrepancies with a piece of equipment he repairs and maintains. A discrepancy that could have killed or injured fellow Marines. THEN aided the OEM in redesign for greater Safety, Maintainability and Reliability. Even helped revise the Maintenance Manual so other techs like himself could follow it accordingly. I love doing 3 things here: 1 - Talking about Manufacturing. 2 - Talking about the Military. 3 - Talking about my experience in both and how universal our problems are. For my Manufacturers. This is a prime example of the knowledge your operators and maintainers possess. We are world-class at fixing problems at the lowest level. However, there are times when those problems need to be addressed and corrected at a higher level. Items that could impact not just our plant/battalion, but those in other areas utilizing similar equipment. What should you take from this? Empower your frontline team to solve their problems. Listen to them when they feel the need to inform you of bigger issues. Support them in seeing the corrective actions through. Finally, if this is behavior you want others to emulate, then you must award/recognize it, accordingly.
