At the 4960th Multi-Functional Training Brigade, “Train to Lead” is more than a motto—it’s a mindset. The journey to developing leaders for tomorrow’s Army begins by grounding Soldiers in resilience today. Through the Army’s Strong Bonds and Got Your Back curriculum, the brigade invests in the emotional, relational, and spiritual strength of its Soldiers—reinforcing the foundation on which authentic leadership is built. These initiatives cultivate trust, self-awareness, and unit cohesion—qualities essential not only in combat, but in command. By prioritizing the whole Soldier, the 4960th MFTB continues to shape individuals who are not only tactically and technically proficient, but personally equipped to lead with empathy, confidence, and clarity—fully prepared to fulfill the mission and meet the demands of a dynamic operational environment.
In this video, Chaplain McCool explores how understanding personality and managing anger and stress—core elements of the Got Your Back curriculum—help Soldiers connect more deeply with their training and strengthen their ability to fulfill the mission of the 4960th Multi-Functional Training Brigade.
