[September 21, 2024] It’s been a few days since one of the greatest, targeted attacks on terrorist operatives ever in the history of modern warfare.

[September 6, 2024] One of the advantages of being a General Officer in the U.S. Army (or Flag Officer as often called) is that we can go just about anywhere, create our own schedule, pick and choose training events to observe, and of course, eat when and where we want.

[September 3, 2024] After receiving my orders for mandatory retirement from the U.S. Army, I started this blog 11 years ago on this date. I’m not celebrating my blog anniversary; that’s not my style, but I will put some of my thoughts on paper that may be of interest – maybe. Here are some of the things I… Read More »
