Leadership Transformational leadership has always been my favorite. Perhaps because it was one of the very few styles I learned about as a young NCO, a young leader, and I felt that I can associate with it the most.

Detection Radar is used to create an voltaic map of all objects in all directions and at as great a distance away as possible. The purpose of this type of radar is mainly for early warning detection against UFO and ships, ground controlled intercept of UFO’s and for mapping ground area for piloting and targeting by bombers. Fire Control Radar is used mostly by night fighters to locate the correct position of a before detected target. This enables the guns to be aimed at, and hit the target without

The purpose of this paper is to address how I, SSG Schumacher, have identified Major Robert Rogers as a legacy leader and a leader of influence in my military career as a non-commissioned officer and member of the military intelligence community. This paper will cover four main topics, in which I will first discuss a brief history of the life of Major Rogers, then, his impact on the evolution of warfare. Afterwards, I will identify his impact on leadership attributes in the United States Army.

Self-actualization is from Latin “actualis”, which means “active” and “making into reality”, and describes one’s potentialities (Cashmore, 2008). Motivation is from Latin, as well, and according to Cashmore is the mainspring of action. Intentional means taking good intensions and putting them into action according to Maxwell (2003).
