The “Colonel’s” VFV Motivational/Inspirational Quotes & Message of the Day!
Good “Saturday” Morning! “Band of Brothers & Sisters, Connections, Friends, & Patriots.” Welcome to the weekend from the “Colonel’s Foxhole” in Conroe, TX — 12 October 2024!
Today’s Message is: “Mask Day!” Why Not?
“Leading can be difficult and real leaders don’t wear a mask. They are authentic when they achieve desired results and when they fail or make a mistake. If you’re a real leader then don't hide behind a mask pretending to be something you aren't. Your words and actions are your example!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

“The meaning runs deep for those men and women who’ve served this country: 'Honor & Respect Always — Warriors for Life’!” COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
Good Saturday morning Colonel.
I'm not sure why so many "Leaders" feel it's necessary to wear a mask. It's tiring and people can see right through it anyhow.
