A diverse group of young American cadets follows General Pershing’s global paths learning why his leadership influences us today.
Raised in the Midwest, General Pershing triumphed commanding the American Expeditionary Forces and helped end World War One. But he also endured personal tragedy, losing his wife and 3 daughters in a fire.
The cadets appreciate Pershing’s racial empathy for Black Buffalo Soldiers, whom he led three times, for Native Americans, and for Muslim Moros whose descendants still honor him today in the Philippines.
Pershing is now seen as a role model for leaders today with his admirable personal values of honor, acceptance, and integrity.
