Allen West could be great, but let’s not get carried away- Eisenhower was the supreme allied commander of the European theater. There hasn’t been an American military officer with a comparable job since.

Its not the level of the job held but the ability to do it, unapologetically, when one knows he is right.

But when it comes to sheer guts and leadership ability, no one -- not even Gov. Palin or Donald Trump -- can match LTC West. Wrestling with oil companies and hostile takeover attempts pale in comparison to looking the enemy in the eye when he's doing his best to kill you and your men. The word "hero" is tossed about a lot these days, but from what I've read about LTC West, he is one.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
