Podcast appearances and mentions of Daniel A Dailey

Erick has a discussion with the 15th Sgt. Maj of the United States Army, Daniel A. Dailey. They discuss his upbringing and inspiration to join the Army, moments that defined him and what his purpose is now serving as the vice president of Noncommissioned Officer and Soldier Programs for the Association of the United States Army.

On June 6, 2021, Baldwin County Sheriff's Deputy Bill Smith gave his life while saving others who got caught in a rip current off the Alabama shore. Two of our podcast crew (Shane and Bill V.) worked for Bill Smith for years before Bill retired as Deputy Chief of Operations for Dekalb County and went on to his second career in law enforcement. Receiving the news that Bill died while saving others was a shock to both of them, but not a surprise since that was very much who Bill Smith was. Last fall, Bill Smith sent Shane and (Combustible) Bill an article about the former Sergeant Major of the Army Daniel A. Dailey's leadership tips. We've decided for this episode, as a tribute to Bill Smith, that we would discuss each leadership tip one at a time. So, this episode is dedicated to Bill Smith, one of the best firefighters and best leaders Shane and Bill ever knew. And a true “Battle Buddy.”
