Hey Steve. Advice well received.
On a side note, my close friend and long time mentor was an Infantry Officer for 25 years. One of the things he taught me was that the NCOs are usually senior to everyone in terms of experience and wisdom.
Why? I look forward to working with him. All I had said was that I had already done what he had asked. He didn't know that I had already called the regiment and made inquiries, and I had neglected to mention that important fact when I first posted.
