The strength of a soldier isn't just in the battlefield, it's in the heart. Years of service have taught me that leadership means sacrifice and resilience comes from standing tall in the face of adversity. Every mission was more than a duty it was a calling to serve something greater than myself. Grateful for the journey and the people who made it unforgettable. The mission may change, but the heart of service never will.

I Lt. Gen. Douglas A. Sims presided over the ceremony by offering opening remarks to introduce Chief DeLong and later administering the oath of office to him. Lt. Gen. Sims, who had come directly from the Pentagon and was visiting Aberdeen Proving Ground for the first time, touched on the focal points of service and sacrifice during his remarks. He indicated that the four overseas service bars on Chief DeLong’s arm not only signify two years spent deployed (six months per bar), but how those bars also mark the passage of time away from his family who made a sacrifice so that he was able to accomplish his mission. It is a sacrifice that has been rewarded, and Chief DeLong’s family deserves full credit for their commitment to our country.
