“The only thing that remained a constant was my presence; I didn’t take any days off. It wasn’t that I didn’t trust my NCOs to make the right decisions; it was that I wasn’t going to ask my Marines to do a job that I wasn’t willing to do. They needed to know that I was a leader willing to stand beside them when the chips were down and we had to walk through hell to get the job done.”

He finally surrendered his grief to reason, and with a whisper, he quietly begged his staff for help. “My boys…we have to get my boys out of there. Help me get my boys out.”
