No Brigadier General can do an entirely incompetent job for long if the Major General up the line is doing his.

Probably a female general can because if the major gen busts her for her errors then he will face siscipline himself for his sexism.

Then he has no business wearing stars anyway. Don't get me wrong, Karpinski is/was clearly incompetent to Command, but Generals at her level are much like Sergeants, they work for (and answer to) somebody. Whoever she answered to was not doing HIS job, and if any of the detainees at Abu Ghraib were likely to have high-level intelligence, he should have been.
