Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Grinston discussed tough issues in the ranks and offered ways to maneuver through. He spoke to a live and tuned-in audience Sept. 30 for the 2020 Fires Conference.

Grinston discussed how lower-level connections within “My Squad” builds cohesive teams and how Soldiers need to get after the basics to have a strong foundation that allows flexibility in a Soldier’s Army career.

He was asked what was the best way to reduce the stigma of going to behavioral health?

“We haven’t convinced you at the junior leader level that it’s OK. I’m going to say it again, it’s OK to go to behavioral health,” stressed Grinston.

He said the Army is looking into ways to normalize seeing a mental health provider and he suggested one way would be to have all Soldiers go for an annual checkup, if funding would allow it.
