Warriors and Modern Democracies

FWIW I thought this is an article from "The Weekly Standard" was interesting. The French General who commanded in Algeria in the late 50's just passed away.

I thought the author had some interesting points on both modern insurgencies and the fight for Viet Nam.

I may be small, but I'm slow.

A veteran - whether active duty, retired, or national guard or reserve is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to, "The United States of America ", for an amount of "up to and including my life - it's an honor."
