General Pace deserves our thanks. He has done more for his country than the man who didn’t have his back.

I'll admit I don't know much about him, other than he will probably be one of the last Vietnam vets to hold the position, but from what I've read, he sounds like an honorable man, and that he really cares about the military. I can easily see a man like him refusing to retire under false pretenses. It's unfortunate that he's basically being fired (if you want to look at it that way) but the way things are these days, if the politicians see you as a scapegoat and not an honorable man or woman serving your country, they are going to use you as a scapegoat.
