One of the best leaders I was ever under was my platoon leader during the time shortly before until shortly after Desert Shield/Storm. This guy was in the Army for not quite 10 years, gets all the way to SFC (E-7) and 30 years old -- and then decides to go to OCS. He was just out of OCS when I showed up at the 82nd -- after a career in mech infantry, then at one of the Ranger battalions, then in SF. He was a real-life T2K munchkin character! More knowledge and ability than any of the platoon sergeants, platoon leaders, and even the company commander.
