He discusses his 2001 to 2002 service in East Timor, and what he learned about interacting with a different culture. He reflects upon his assignment to CENTCOM immediately following September 11, 2001, and his subsequent service in Afghanistan. He describes his 2005 return to southern Iraq, where he commanded the Al Muthanna Task Group, as a “terrible year” because of the violence in the country, and his 2011 deployment to Afghanistan at the peak of the coalition as his “toughest assignment.” His 2016 return to Iraq with the 101st Airborne Division as the Deputy Coalition Land Force Commander was a true peer-to-peer assignment, and he discusses the improvement of the Iraqi Army as it took the lead fighting Isis. Finally, he talks about his current assignment as the Deputy Commanding General – North for US Army Pacific, and what his service means to him.
