[Dan Reese @DanReese21]

What US city has the largest gap between national perception and reality?

My answer: Detroit

Everyone seems to think it’s a run down hell hole w nothing but boarded up buildings.

In reality:

> Completely rejuvenated downtown w businesses, residential, restaurants, & nice sports venues – Ford Field (Lions), Comerica Park (Tigers), Little Caesars Arena (Pistons & Red Wings)

> One of the best airports in the country – Delta hub w direct flights all over the world

> Tons of history, culture, and classic architecture

> Diversifying economy beyond auto into tech, medical, etc.

> People are genuinely nice but also super tough & resilient

Of course it’s not all unicorns and rainbows. While some parts of the city are making a comeback, others are being left behind.

There’s crime, traffic and all the other things most big cities battle.

But if Detroit has a national reputation of 1/10, in actuality I think it’s more like 7/10.

September 29th.
St. Michael’s Day.
We will never forget Mikey Monsoor, who on this day in 2006, in Ramadi, Iraq, made The Ultimate Sacrifice to save our friends, our brothers, our teammates.
“ROGER THAT.”

The week before I was blown up, we exfiled in a snowstorm. I saw a toddler girl, shoeless on the wet rock, waving to us. Green Berets had helped liberate her valley from ISIS. She was so close I could have touched her.

Any of us could have been born her.

“When I worked at McDonald’s, I thought it was the best job ever. I was making $100 every two weeks…I came to work every day happy and I knew it was all part of my goal to go to college.”

Never hide amongst the strongest pillars in your team. Make sure you work your ass off to be one of them! Stay hard!

[my book is better than my tweets @MichellCClark]

there’s nothing wrong with taking an unconventional path. there’s nothing wrong with moving at your own pace. there’s nothing wrong with choosing what’s best for you, even if it’s unpopular. honor your journey, not other peoples’ opinions.

What a moment. Happy 4th America
