First off, good post COL Jack!
I expect an officer to utilize the knowledge and experience of the NCO around him.
I expect an officer to fight for his personnel.
I expect an officer to have no concept of what a "yes man" is.
I expect an officer to have the knowledge and skills to make decisions that will best accomplish a given mission and also take into consideration the lives and safety of the personnel involved.
I expect an officer to succeed and advance without leaving boot marks on those he led.
And I pretty much expect the same thing from senior NCO's.
Jim
