I'm going w/ Major General Kelly as well. Nice looking man.

Kelly is a highly decorated vet, and holds several awards (rifle expert badge and pistol sharpshooter badge).

During the battle to crush the Iraqi insurgency, Gen. Kelly took command of the newly formed Task Force Tripoli and drove it north from Baghdad into Samarra and Tikrit.

During the initial assault on Baghdad, Kelly was asked by a reporter of the Los Angeles Times if (considering the size of the Iraqi Army and the vast supplies of tanks, artillery and chemical weapons available to Saddam’s forces) he would ever consider defeat.

Kelly’s archetypal response was, “Hell these are Marines. Men like them held Guadalcanal and took Iwo Jima. Baghdad ain’t shit.”

If the list (and who really knows, other than Trump) is really down to Bolton, Corker, Giuliani, Kelly, Petraeus, and Romney...then the ONLY one I like on that list is Kelly, hands down above the others.
