Commanding Officer @ United States Marine Corps in Garden City, NY
"I love leading Marines and having the ability to improve their performance and quality of life. As the CO, I am directly responsible for setting the conditions for their success in our market. As for hate... that's a strong word but there have been times that I have felt that my authority has been watered down/too highly scrutinized by higher HQ."
