El Paso Times:
Command Sgt. Maj. Steve Burnley is never too busy to stop and mentor a young soldier.
Burnley, a 46-year-old from Alexandria, Va., is the senior enlisted leader for the division-level 32nd Army Air and Missile Defense Command at Fort Bliss. He took over the position in July.
“If I see something or someone asks me a question, I will stop what I am doing to offer some advice, make an observation or make a recommendation,” Burnley said.
“I hold that philosophy in my office, too,” he said. “If someone comes and knocks on my door, I don’t tell them to go down the hallway and schedule an appointment. I say, ‘Come in and sit down.’ I will stay late if I have to.”
