“Generals like other soldiers die in wars.
What’s new about that?”

LMAO! These aren’t the Napoleonic Wars. Generals don’t lead their troops from the front lines where they are in danger of being killed anymore. Not unless something has gone very seriously wrong with their battle plan.

If the Generals were not on the battlefield, how did they get killed on the battlefield?

Good generals like MacArthur and Patton were often on the front lines and the generals under a MacArthur and Patton were always on the front lines when engaged with the enemy.
