WISE WORDS

- LT. COL. CHRIS STAKE U. S. ARMY

I found Daniel Craig’s responses (“Becoming James Bond,” April 2020) to be very humble, simple and just what I needed to hear. Wise men know that success requires supporting characters, and praising his stuntmen and trainer struck me as emotionall­y sincere. Second: “I think mental health is more important than physical health” is just what we need to hear and contemplat­e right now. Craig’s focus on his mindset hopefully just helped men across the U.S. with theirs. Lastly, the quote of the year: “But for God’s sake, don’t listen to people like me.” I literally LOL’D. That level of self-deprecatio­n is rare. I have been a subscriber for as long as I can remember. Surely as long as my military career of 21 years 9 months and 19 days, which is coming to an end July 31. I want to thank MJ for giving me something to look forward to. Keep interviewi­ng good men! Thanks for providing a service to us very fallible men.
