Sergeant Major Mullinax

Um, all the, the entire class is canteen. So it's two, one, two, two, uh, one courts and, and, uh, one of the two courts. So I think it's like three canteens per guy, a hundred folks in the class or whatever it is have like these giant black trash bags of canteens. And we were, and we washed every that we spent the entire weekend washing those canteens.

Well, I was, I was worried that we were going to get dropped. I was going to get kicked out of the course because they could have easily said you're gone. And then they gave us a second chance. And that's why I think that's the closest I came to like. being out of the course. And I was thinking, I mean, it resonates to this day with me that, yeah.

You got to stay in because it is something where they do. Yeah, what a terrible story to have to come back and sit here with you today. And I actually, I didn't serve in the Ranger Regiment. I got kicked out because I was spitting in a canteen.

So I left as a First Sergeant. Damn, that is a testament to you. Yeah, I'm super proud of the time that I served there. You know, and staying as a CSM would have been awesome. I went to the academy, went to the 173rd to be a battalion CSM right out of the academy, competed to come back as a CSM. But, you know, the thing is, is like the competition is so steep.

And there just were better guys for those positions. And so I went on to serve in the Army. And I tell you, I'm grateful for that because I left there. And what I realized leaving the Ranger Regiment, if you're going to continue to serve for a while after leaving there, I had a lot to learn about the Army.

And so leaving there when I did was key to, you know, I wouldn't be where I am today if I hadn't left when I did. And the Army needs us to, you know, go out and share what we've learned in that organization and share with the rest of the institution. It's important that we do that.
