competent, able to do whatever job is given to him and to do it to the best of his ability with commitment to Soldiers, the Army, the nation, the mission, and able to balance that with commitment to his family.”
Well before he deployed to Afghanistan, Greene was the heart and soul behind Army AL&T’s in-depth coverage of the forward-deployed Army materiel enter- prise in the magazine’s July-September 2013 issue. Not content to look just at ASA(ALT)’s operations in theater, he asked Army AL&T to profile forward- deployed personnel—military, civilian and contractor—from U.S. Army Con- tracting Command, U.S. Army Research, Development

Then-BG Greene leads the promotion ceremony of then-LTC Alan Samuels on Feb. 4. “It’s an honor for me to do this,” Greene said. “LTC Samuels has demonstrated the potential to lead, and he’s being promoted to a position where we expect him to lead.” Samuels said he was humbled. “The Army for me is a place where, with some hard work and selfless service, you can call it home.” Similarly, Greene was known for his selfless service, and the Army was his home.
