This war will remove Col. Hackworth as a credible source of current military strategy and techniques forever....
Shame to see him go out this way, he served his country well....
To be reduced to a shrill has-been from an outstanding warrior is sad.....

To be reduced to a shrill has-been from an outstanding warrior is sad..... That reduction took place around 35 years ago.

I originally read this Hackworth article earlier today in my local newspaper. Meanwhile, the nearby radio was giving reports about Coalition Troops capturing Saddam International Airport and how the Iraqi forces were quickly collapsing. It gave me a lot of chuckles at the time at the amazingly POOR TIMING of this idiotic article.

Hack predicted disaster in Gulf War One and Hack predicted disater in Afghanistan. Yet, when the TV talking heads want a Gloom and Doom guest (which is before and during every war), Hack is the first guy they call.
