“retirement time!”

What brought that on? General Casey is simply stating that the Army is prepared to do that. What’s wrong with that?

What brought that on? General Casey is simply stating that the Army is prepared to do that. What’s wrong with that?

Because it goes against groupthink. It implies that the Army might be there.

Nothing wrong with his statement. Something wrong with his boss who will take retribution upon him for making that statement.
