June 30, 2011

Douglas Wheelock

With the last Space Shuttle mission scheduled for July 8, we want to introduce you to our TopRank, Col. Doug "Wheels" Wheelock of the US Army and NASA, the commander of the International Space Station (ISS), Expedition 25. Long-time friend Mark Sullivan introduced us to "Wheels" recently, and we're grateful he did. There's an adage that says true success comes to those who genuinely and freely share their gifts with others. Col. Wheelock embodies that adage. He is truly an inspiring individual with a deep respect for those who serve and those who need a little extra inspiration in order to serve. Enjoy!
