@war_hamster6: ⚠️This is a tear jerker, so please dont watch if your not having a good day ⚠️Please help me tag as many military leadership people as possible who you think can help make a big impact before the holidays come up, as a team we can maybe make the holidays a bit easier for people with just awareness in communication. Imagine this question being asked by 10 people every day before, during and after the holidays. #drillsargent #sargeant #militaryleadership #awareness #usaf #army #usmc #navy #coastguard #spaceforce #MentalHealthAwareness
I appreciate the message and I’ll change my wording - Sergeant Major USMC.

Gave out this invite last year. Had 20ish Marines show up and say how thankful they were, how impactful it was. Leadership isn’t always just training

My platoon sergeant saved my life one Thanksgiving by telling me "Hey PFC, cancel any plans you have, I'm doing Thanksgiving and you're coming."

its a shame. When i was in the AF, when assigned overseas, i was either told to come to dinner or when deployed, we all did the holidays together.

I would always offer the single sailors in my husband’s workspace the offer to come over. Nobody should spend the holidays alone.

A lot of the time that’s really hard because of the fear of fraternization but you could do like a holiday party in clinic

I'm a bit late to posting. you're right, words and phrasing matter. But if you know several people who are in this situation, maybe connect them so they know they're not alone feeling this way...

I use to have a SSG who would always ask. And if plans were not family. He would make it mandatory to spend holidays with him.
