00:09.699 --> 00:11.810
To be a non-commissioned officer , to

00:11.810 --> 00:13.588
me , uh , means to take care of

00:13.588 --> 00:16.899
soldiers and prepare them for the next

00:16.899 --> 00:19.889
mission . My leadership philosophy is

00:20.139 --> 00:23.930
leaders lead by example . With

00:23.930 --> 00:26.809
personal courage , integrity , and

00:26.809 --> 00:29.031
humility . Achievements that have stood

00:29.031 --> 00:31.409
out to me , uh , since being a

00:31.409 --> 00:33.187
noncommissioned officer are the

00:33.187 --> 00:35.353
achievements of my soldiers . I've had

00:35.353 --> 00:37.689
soldiers that have hit rock bottom and

00:37.689 --> 00:41.209
to see them excel , um , and , and come

00:41.209 --> 00:44.099
out of the depths of , of either

00:44.689 --> 00:47.409
physically or emotionally , uh , has

00:47.409 --> 00:50.080
just , that's what truly keeps me going .
