Episode #69: Closing out our Senior Leader engagements during the Sustainment Week 2026 miniseries, CPT Garett Pyle meets with CSM Jacinto Garza, the CSM of Army Materiel Command, to discuss how the Strong Sergeants initiative is impacting the entire force. “A Strong Sergeant is a leader who is: physically, mentally and emotionally fit; tactically and technically proficient; an expert in maintaining military equipment; and administratively ready- medically, financially and organizationally. A Strong Sergeant is ready to deploy, fight, and win our nation's wars and bring their Soldiers home safely.” – CSM Garza.
Strong Sergeants make Strong Soldiers. Strong Soldiers make Strong Squads. Strong Squads will win our nation’s wars and winning absolutely matters!
