He was a platoon sergeant, a cadet master sergeant, and the youngest senior noncommissioned officer in the entire corps.

Lt. Owen's mortar section had little to no experience on the weapon systems that they were working with. He trained them from darkness to darkness with consistent drills in different types of situations. Lt.

Unfortunately, this brigade is no longer the brigade I remember when I commanded a battalion within the 4th ABCT not so long ago. In the last 30 days, I have had the opportunity to observe the ABCT and review a multitude of historical documents to assess the state of the brigade. During my observation, I believe the critical leadership problem in the 4th ABCT’s is the lack of vision for the brigade. Therefore, this critical problem has led to other challenging issues within the brigade.

I really enjoy working with Officer Varnum as he is a very friendly, polite, courteous and professional officer. I have found him to be a very hard working dedicated employee that not only enjoys his job but he enjoys helping others succeed as well.
