Good “Tuesday” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, & Patriots!”  Welcome from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — July 8, 2025

Today’s Message is:  “Ground Day!”  Why Not?

“Leaders that are grounded and keep their feet on the ground lead by example.  Leaders ‘on the ground’ are visible, accessible, and build trust.  Leadership is taking time to ground yourself, but at the same time setting the ground rules for achieving the mission!  Are you grounded with your feet firmly on solid ground?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs, CEO, Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV)
