This Friday, we begin a seven- or eight-part series on the leadership legacy of General George C. Marshall, US Army Chief of Staff during World War II, the third Secretary of Defense, and Nobel Peace Prize winner.
In the George C. Marshall Foundation's "Soldier and Statesman - Part 1," we get a glimpse of Marshall's ties to the wildland fire service through his work as a member of a 27-person Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) crew in Vancouver, WA.
