For Memorial Day, do yourself a favor and take three minutes of your time to listen to this Civil War letter from Maj. Sullivan Ballou to his wife.

I just started re-watching the Ken Burns series, which debuted in 1990 to a record-breaking audience of 40 million, for the first time since it originally aired.

While I had forgotten all of the specifics of the show over the years, I NEVER forgot this letter or this moment, which closed the first episode.

Burns kept a copy of the letter in his wallet for 25 years.

@Cernovich I see it with mine. At first he just says the last word of my sentence. Then the last two. Before you know it he’s speaking in full sentences.

Small series on the key roles a CFO needs around himself. Do you need a CAO or a Controller or both? Do you neeed multiple asssist controllers and if so why? Do you need an executive level treasury lead or just a manager? Is FP&A a corporate leader or just a “regular” VP? I see so much variation in these questions across companies. Makes me wonder how or why CFOs arrive at the team models they have.

@GovConsultPro Well don’t let it be #2. You’re not getting into the real heavy duty FAR stuff until you’re getting huge sole-sourced awards and don’t qualify for any exemptions (like small business).

@walterkirn Reading the memoirs now. Grant is in the pantheon of great Americans. A top 5 president without a doubt.

@owroot Read this in the weeks after my first child was born. I plan to re-read as he enters each new stage in adolescent life.

@texasrunnerDFW Did this earlier this year in an exurb south of Dallas with 1 acre of land. So much happier than a new-build in a postage stamp community in the northern suburbs.

Cool. I now work in the A&W industry.

@Degen_CPA Use the word “ratably” and you’re golden.

@RetVet99 Had a recent transaction where this was a material factor to valuation

@wajacobson How to life a live unburdened by the thought of repaying other people’s money back, but rather what can be

I had the privilege of a 1:1 with @jakeadler a few months ago. He’s the real deal. Give him and @pilgrimlabs a follow.

[Jake Adler @jakeadler]

The military expects 50k casualties in the first 8 days of the next high-intensity peer conflict. That’s 20 years of losses from GWOT compressed into a single week.

We’re building @pilgrimlabs to deploy medical technology designed for the operational realities of modern warfare.
