President Trump has referred to this general several times. Does anyone know who he is talking about?

I have no respect for any of the Obama generals who all saluted the transgenderizing of our military

Mustapha Kemal, also known as Attaaturk, at the battle of Gallipoli, “l know you have no ammunition, I am not asking to fright and win, I am not even asking you to go forth and fight. I am asking you to go forth an die.” And the Turks went out and died until the British got tired and gave up.
A bit simplified but true.
He went on to found the modern state of Turkey.

Sounds like BS or maybe that Platoon needed more ammo. As bad as Obama was, our infantry was still provided with ammo.

I know of an Army reserve unit that could not qualify at the range in 2015 because there was no ammo.
My COL friend was just shaking his head.

President Trump has referred to this general several times. Does anyone know who he is talking about? Perhaps a fictional general that Trump made up to demonstrate his point, which likely is that he restored necessary funding to the military?

Mattison turned out to be a real disappointment but not surprising since he fell for the Blonde Therenos scam

"When I took over our military, we didn't have ammunition. I was told by a top general — maybe the top of them all — ‘Sir, I'm sorry. Sir, we don't have ammunition.’ "
This exchange is unconfirmed. Trump made a similar claim in September, identifying former Defense Secretary James Mattis as the source of the ammunition comment.

Here is a bit more information on the subject. It only takes a little over ten minutes if you can spare a dime.
Section 88 of the UCMJ and former officers of the US Military.
