And that's what we set up, you know, that's what we did.
But there was a time where,
there's a platoon in the field and there's multiple elements that are getting ready to do target hits.
And we're waiting for like a pro word from this platoon that's supposed to be set up and we're waiting.
And I go, sir, can I pimp them for this pro word?
And he's like, give them another minute.
And I was like, Roger that.
And 45 seconds later, the guys passed the pro word.
And it just reminded me that like, those guys out in the field, you got to listen to what they're doing.
You got to give them the benefit of the doubt.
And that's what my boss was telling me.
Like, hey, those guys got, they're not sitting in the talk right now.
They're not, they're making decisions.
