There is not a single VN GEN in the Army. MG Bargewell was the last. Those who have been in Afgan and Iraq as LT’s and CPT’s are not Gen’s yet. A CPT who is promoted to Major usually has almost 10 years of commissioned service. Add another 5 to LTC on average, then another 5 to Full Colonel and maybe a real lucky O-5 who made BDE CO makes BG in 5 years. We have not been fighting this for 15 years yet. Also, senior CPT’s are usually in some BN or BDE staff job as they commanded a rifle company earlier.

Good grief at this rate there won’t be any military leaders left...oh wait. That’s the plan.

Watch them to be replaced with Hasan types. To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if he got released and promoted one day. Face it, we've laid the welcome mat out for our enemies.

Baker's removal as well as the recent dismissal of former four-star general Kip Ward

Kip WEard is black. Baker is a token "get even" whitey firing.

Thanks for the explanation. It’s hard to imagine a General with no war experience but we had Clinton and now BO as CIC with none either. I miss the days when a POTUS had to have military service.
