Life gets busy, and being an adult puts most of my hobbies on hold. Podcasts are an incredible way to enjoy hobbies, interests, and the great communities around them! Thanks, @onexpunchxdad and @GameOverGreggy, for the hours of podcasts and the genuine enjoyment they bring!

I just spent an hour or so this afternoon loading new pubs into my Kindle and realized that the ILE Kool-Aid must already be in my coffee…

Anyway, check out the new TC 3-20.31-9, it's pretty rad.

Happy Cavalry Wins Battles Day to all who celebrate!

Favorite movie you like because of your father?

Monday morning I went for a run and it was in the low 40s. This morning (albeit a bit closer to noon thanks to it being a day off) I went for a run and it is now in the high 80s.

The desert is a wild place. Spring was great while it lasted!

@EODHappyCaptain Can they fill in as a UMO and help with the HAZMAT?

Or better yet, help me pass ag. inspections with one marginally functional power washer.

How has it been FOUR already?! Always proud to look back at my time with Apache Troop!

[Joe Davey @Brave_Athos]

@Bigtow3360 Thank you sir!

[Joe Davey @Brave_Athos]

I’m proud to share part one of an article I was extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to contribute to.
Thanks to a phenomenal leader and mentor who I’ve had the privilege of working for directly over the past 10 months.

@ajduggins Both Harrison Ford "Tom Clancy" movies are seriously underrated.

Add a quarterly focus on functions such as your Arms Room, Supply Room, and other CSDP elements.
Spread them out and focus on one or two a week.

Hard to believe that it’s now been over 8 years since I was out bushwhacking on a Ukrainian BMP-2 alongside some of the most influential officers and NCOs that I’ve ever served with. (I also hope that somehow our platoon Tupac poster is still alive out there!)

[Joe Davey @Brave_Athos]

Nobody tells you about how old you will feel in the Army when leaders you knew as company/troop commanders are now coming up as CSL battalion/squadron commanders.
Couldn’t be happier for them and their future formations but damn I feel old!

[Joe Davey @Brave_Athos]

@johnnyrichard53 Glad to hear it man, it’s been 6 years since I took that course and it’s still the best army course I’ve ever been too.

Coming into work on a Monday and opening your outlook inbox when your higher headquarters is three time zones ahead of you.

[Joe Davey @Brave_Athos]

It’s the last weekend before an extended rotation. There aren’t any new shows out yet that are inspiring a healthy binge session.
Time to rewatch the holy trinity of 90s action movies.
Three Musketeers, you’re up first!
