"I have only two men out of my company and twenty out of some other
company. We need support, but it is almost suicide to try to get it
here as we are swept by machine gun fire and a constant barrage is
on us. I have no one on my left and only a few on my right. I will
hold." First Lt. Clifton B. Cates's report on July 19, 1918,
reminds us that controlling one's fear is key to success on the
battlefield. Cates-a future commandant of the Marine Corps-held,
but if his fear had bested him, he might not have been able to
think clearly or lead his men successfully, possibly sacrificing
his men's lives and the mission. Medal of Honor recipient and
retired Marine colonel Wesley L. Fox writes about his fears in
difficult operational and training situations, their effect on him,
and he how he handled particular fears. While he focuses primarily
on military experiences, Fox's methods of handling the thoughts,
actions, and reactions to fear apply to civilian circumstances as
well. Fear can bombard us in our daily routine, sometimes in
unexpected ways. The more we know about ourselves and how fear
affects us, the better able we are to control it and to produce
positive results. "If fear is not handled properly and promptly,"
Fox writes, "it can and will override common sense, good judgment,
and the positive decision-making process."
