Brian Turner serves as the Associate Deputy Director of the FBI. He details his story from humble beginnings on the South Side of Chicago to becoming the 2nd most senior official in the FBI today.  Despite his meteoric rise through the ranks of our government, BT remains true to his roots and lives by his Leadership Philosophy: Character, Competence, and Empathy - all values that were instilled in him at West Point and in the Army.

Chuck served 30 years of active duty following graduation from West Point and retired as a Colonel. He now works as counsel for The Defense Threat Reduction Agency. DTRA is both a defense agency and a combat support agency within the United States Department of Defense for countering weapons of mass destruction and supporting the nuclear enterprise. Chuck takes us through his 30-year Army career and highlights points of wisdom and leadership he learned along the way. He lives in Northern Virginia with his wife Renee and they have two young adult children Madeline and Zachary. 

Chris Hartley, formerly a law department professor at West Point, retired from active duty after his last assignment there. He is currently serving as a company tactical officer at the Citadel in Charleston, SC, where he finds immense fulfillment in shaping tomorrow's leaders through his role.

On this call we have Ted Russ, Andy Iliff, Major General Jim Isenhower, Mr. Iliff Senior, Ron Massey and Holly West all sharing their stories of stealing the goat. 

In this episode we discuss the Goat Heist of 1990 with Jon Braga and Andy Iliff. 

Chris Barden laid down a challenge for the Old Grad Podcast. "You get the blood lady on, and I'll do OGP".... Challenge accepted. Along with Co-Host Brian Sharpe (F1) we hear from Ms. Jeannie Kays what it was like being the blood lady. We then interview Chris Barden about his journey. Along the way we stumble on some funny memories of cadet life as a G-1 Greek, drunken ferrets, unusual talents of snorting dog tag chains, gold fish Heimlich maneuver and much more. 

Vince introduces a good friend Dennis Gillan who brings forward an important message of suicide prevention. We also talk about Vince's Army career starting with his experience at West Point and culminating with a multi-decade career serving our country. Vince continues to serve to this day working with non-profit organizations as a consultant. It is with this work that he first learned of Dennis and his story. Vince is on a mission to make sure we all focus on mental well-being and positivity.
