MISSION FIRST: One Team, One Fight

"One Team, One Fight" is a principle Col. Jim Barren has adopted during his 27 years in the United States Army. More than a simple motto or saying, "One Team, One Fight" has become a way of life for the man who serves as the G-3, or Operations Officer, at the United States Military Academy.

"That's the mantra we kind of have for the team in the G-3 shop," Barren says. "Everybody who works here and performs, from cadets to military police to professors to people who mentor the cadets, we're all on the same team. Our endeavors are unique to our particular organization, but they all have to fit together and we all have to be mutually supportive of each other.
