The enemy that we're dealing with is very adaptable and very smart, so we need to have realistic and challenging training to make sure that we're over-prepared, over-trained.

We're answering the call. We're here training to go to war. We're trying to get our forces ready to go so that when we get over into Iraq, we're ready to take the fight to the enemy and then bring all our soldiers home.

When you're dealing with something as massive as this, it takes everyone.

When you're dealing with a little tiny detail, you put it in that context. Is this going to affect something 20 years out? Do I need to take five more minutes and look a little bit closer to make sure?

Life without any wonder left in it is flat and stale.

I think I'm pretty adaptable.
