 The man sets out to be a soldier, he hopes to accomplish many things. He wants to serve his country. He wants to carve out a career for himself. He wants to see something of the world. He wants excitement, a challenge. He wants to prove himself a man. I think I've accomplished all of this. I've got my campaign ribbons and my sergeant strikes. I've served on three continents and been in 15 foreign countries. About interesting assignments, I've worked with top-notch people. I have more responsibility than I had a dream possible. I've had a lot of satisfaction out of being a soldier. And I think I've been a good one. One thing I'm positive of. In my 14 years in the Army, I've never had a more satisfying job than I have now. As a drill sergeant. A year ago, I didn't know what a drill sergeant was. I was sitting in a PX in Kaiser's Lauder in Germany, wondering where the Army was going to send me next.
