Eagle of the Week

Bob Darling
24 Hours Inside the President's Bunker 9/11/01: The White House
My name is Bob Darling. I am a retired Marine Corps Lieutenant Colonel and pilot who served over twenty years of active duty service.

After piloting attack helicopters in Desert Shield, Desert Storm, and as a presidential pilot with Marine Helicopter Squadron One, I was handpicked to work for the White House Military Office, Airlift Operations Department.

It was in this position that, during the attack of September 11, 2001, I supported the President, Vice President and National Security Advisor in the underground President's Emergency Operations Center (PEOC) and witnessed unprecedented leadership and decision making at the highest levels of our government.

I relay these events and much more in my keynote presentation and book titled 24 Hours Inside the President’s Bunker; 9/11/01: The White House.

For those of you who are looking for a half-day keynote and training event, I would like to offer you "Leading in Times of Uncertainty." With all the uncertainty and chaos now happening all around us, it’s time we get together again and talk about crisis leadership, decision-making, and the art of effective crisis communications.

Combined with the keynote, this new, powerful session uses real-world examples of effective crisis leadership and provides your attendees with the tools they need to recognize when a crisis is happening and how to take the necessary steps to organize, respond, communicate, and recover from the incident. As a leader, it’s our job to prepare our workforce and organizations to meet the challenges we face.

Simply stated, a well-trained workforce has both the ability and the trust necessary to thrive from a crisis! Let’s do this together!

BOOK OF THE WEEK

24 Hours Inside the President's Bunker
9-11-01 The White House
by Robert J Darling

A Riveting Eye-Witness Account of the Minute-by-Minute Drama Inside the White House Bunker on September 11, 2001

After Major Darling organizes President Bush's trip to Florida on Sept. 10, 2001, he believes the next couple of days will be quiet. He has no idea that a war is about to begin. On September 11th, after terrorists crash airliners into the World Trade Center towers and the Pentagon, Maj. Darling rushes to the president's underground chamber at the White House.

There, he takes on the task of liaison between the Vice President, National Security Advisor and The White House Situation Room. He plays an instrumental role when Vice President Cheney orders two fighter jets airborne in order to shoot down United Flight 93. Throughout the attacks, Maj. Darling witnesses the unprecedented actions that our nation’s leaders are taking to defend America.

Follow Darling's story as he becomes a Marine Corps aviator and rises through the ranks to fly with Presidential Helicopter Squadron, HMX-1 and then is selected as a White House Airlift Operations Liaison Officer charged with organizing all logistical aspects of travel for The White House. It is during this time he finds himself responding to the crisis that changed the world.

Note from the Editor:

Hey Eagle Family,

Hope you're all gearing up for an amazing month ahead. I've been thinking a lot about our journey together and the magic that happens in our monthly mastermind sessions. It's pretty incredible to see the ideas, support, and breakthroughs that come out of these gatherings. It's like we've built our very own think tank, but with the warmth of a close-knit community.

Let's Make Our Mastermind Even Better

You know, one thing that strikes me every time we meet is the power of the diverse perspectives around our virtual table. It got me thinking—how awesome would it be to mix it up even more? This is where you come in. I'm betting each of you knows someone who's just as passionate about growth and success as we are. Why not invite them to join us?

Sharing Is Caring

Bringing in friends or colleagues isn’t just about growing our numbers; it's about enriching our discussions and opening doors to new insights. Plus, it's a chance to offer someone you respect a seat at a table that could really make a difference for them. And let’s be honest, it’s always more fun with friends.

How to Bring Your Plus One

Think of someone who'd dig our vibe and let them know what we're about. Share a little about how being part of this group has impacted you. We all have stories of those lightbulb moments or the times a fellow member's advice was exactly what we needed. Let’s spread that magic a bit wider.

Growing Together

Every new voice is an opportunity for us all to learn and grow. The more we bring to our community, the richer the experience becomes for everyone involved. So, let’s get to inviting and make our next session the best yet with some fresh faces and ideas.

Thanks for being the awesome, driven bunch you are. Your energy and commitment are what make this group so special. Here's to making our mastermind even more incredible, together.
