Mattis wa a Captain when I served with him off Iran in 1980, me and Flightline.

We corresponded a few times recently, and he did something wonderful to help us support our guys over there.

He has the power and authority to makes things happen in these cases.

I just wonder what the hell is going on.

Everything I knew about him, and from people who know him for years after being his troops, all tell me he is an honorable guy, yet all the eveidence I have heard shows he is ignoring the defense.

I never had the honor of serving with Mattis, but I recall being impressed what this after he returned from Afghanistan...

Of course, it made the Leftwingers insane with rage. But what else is new?
