Cpt. Jamal Khan, a native of Rochester, Mich., commander, Company D “Dragons”, 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment “Battle Boars”, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, talks to his soldiers at the end of the day after they had signed the Marne Pledge here March, 8. Over the course of a week, starting from the Brigade command team on down to the most junior soldier within the brigade, every Spartan has reaffirmed their commitment to follow the tenants of the pledge. Every soldier who takes the pledge promises to drive safely, to not drive impaired, to not ride with an unsafe driver, and to contact their chain of command if they need help getting home before putting themselves in any of the above situations. Additionally, commanders and leaders also promise to be there for their soldiers when needed and to set the example. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Richard Wrigley, 2nd BCT, 3rd Inf.
