In honor of Father's Day weekend, Ryan talks with Lieutenant General (Ret.) Mark Hertling about fatherhood, legacy, and the lessons we hope our children take with them. During a wartime deployment, Mark began writing a journal for his sons in case he did not return home. What started as a way to leave them guidance became a reflection on character, failure, leadership, and what it really means to be a father.Lieutenant General (Ret.) Mark Hertling served 38 years in the U.S. Army, rising from tank platoon leader to commander of U.S. Army Europe and the Seventh Army. His career included combat tours in Desert Storm and Iraq, where he commanded the 1st Armored Division, prepared U.S. and allied forces for deployment, and helped support military transformation across Eastern Europe.📚 Grab a copy of If I Don't Return: A Father's Wartime Journal by Lieutenant General (Ret.)
