Thomas Behrends & John W Troxell – The CSM Standard

Here comes a no holds barred look at the role of a Sergeant Major in military units. Much has been said about the role of Command Sergeant Majors and Tim Walz. We're going to cut through the crap and give you the straight unfiltered truth.

Thomas Behrends deployed with the 125th Field Artillery Regiment in 2006 and remained for 22 months. Th role Behrends filled in the 125th was Command Sergeant Major. The opening for this coveted slot became available because Master Sergeant Tim Walz dropped paperwork to retire. This moment has become a firestorm 20 years later. Tim is the current Democrat nominee for Vice President of the United States. His decision to not deploy with his troop has come under scrutiny from combat veterans including Tom.

Joining Behrends and Pete A Turner on the Break It Down Show is John Wayne Troxell. John was the SEAC from 2015 to 2019. There is no higher position for enlisted service members than the SEAC. John has 7 overseas service bars. That's 42 months in theaters of war.
