I generally defer on military matters to people with miiltary experience. However, I've also read enough history to know that there are bad generals and good generals. It's not always easy to discern one from the other except in times of military conflict. McClellan: bad general. Grant: good general. That's happening again today with this […]
This one is a serious jaw-dropper. On a just-finished conference call in which retired military leaders endorsed Hillary Clinton to be commander in chief, retired General Wesley Clark said John McCain's military experience is not the right kind of experience to command the nation's armed forces: In the national security business, the question is, do […]
Sen. Barack Obama had this interesting anecdote in last night's debate: OBAMA: You know, I've heard from an Army captain who was the head of a rifle platoon — supposed to have 39 men in a rifle platoon. Ended up being sent to Afghanistan with 24 because 15 of those soldiers had been sent to […]

If passed by a […]
The anti-military lawyer who was accused of keying a Marine's car had his day in court on Friday. The plea bargain: 30 hours community service, one year probation, $600 to the Marine Semper Fi Fund and an admission of guilt. The last part is probably the one that's going to the guy in trouble with […]
In an interview Monday, Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the joint chiefs, said he was in favor of closing down the terrorist detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. There are good reasons to shut down Gitmo, and there are bad reasons. Good reason: All terrorist detainees have been given a fair trial and a public […]
