Thank you, Ernest. You have a better memory than I. But that particular phrase has been conveniently left out in order to paint Haig as a grasping villian. Nothing could be further than the truth. He is a great American.

On the whole I agree. Remember, this was the time when the media ruled the soundbite and took words (and truth) from context. Haig’s full statement doesn’t have the same media focus does it?
Prayers for the General and his family. Thank you sir for your loyal service to our nation.
