This is Jocco Podcast number 256 with Echo Charles and me, Jocco Willink.

Good evening, Echo. Good evening. And joining us once again is Dave Burke, good evening, Dave.

Good evening. And tonight we are going to wrap the final installment on guidelines for the leader and

commander by General Bruce Clark. This is the subject of podcasts plural 251 252 253 254 255.
