He was my Battalion Commander in 3/5th. I'd rank him right under H. Davis as a Battalion Commander. Of course I got to serve under H. Davis as the Group Commander also. No complaints from me on either of them.
I was always a bit bemused by the way morale in a battalion could go up or down based on who was behind the silver leaf. Of all the positions at Company, Battalion and Group I think the BC impacted morale the most.

Lucky to have a great number of really good commanders over the years.
