Good “R.E.D. Friday” Morning “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, & Patriots!”  Welcome to the end of the week from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — June 13, 2025

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

“If leaders want to ‘hang on’ to a big vision, then they can’t let people ‘hang on’ to the past, because that’s the way things have always been done.  Think outside the box; forward thinking. Your leadership and vision should be focusing on the present and the opportunities right in front of you!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs, CEO, Victory for Veterans, Inc. (VFV)
