Sure don't make em like they used to.. Now they're mostly politicians with pretty stars on their shoulders... They're more worried about their 201 file and kissing Washington's ass than winning a damn war. Look at every great general who got shit done... All of them were willing to lose stars to win the war, and most did both.. The ones today are more worried about making the promotion list, or their post retirement career....

You got that right Joe.... Last 30 years how many Generals can you name that did what was best for the situation more so than their career......
