As a fellow 0402 in the community and having experiences both on the active and SMCR sides, the content shared amongst the hosts and guests is invaluable to all in our community. I find myself laughing when I can relate to the same experiences shared as well as taking notes on experiences yet to come. Valuable to the USMC and maybe other logisticians in the DoD community to an extent. Can’t wait for more!
