"Cmdr Sittlow's hands-on deckplate leadership and mentoring combined with his strategic vision are his greatest attributes. His confident, yet humble approach to leading the Boise crew helped each Sailor grow and feel empowered to make decisions and take decisive action. Cmdr. Sittlow started each week by preaching that 'Submarining is the ultimate team sport.' Boise is an unbeatable team and he is the ultimate coach."
