You clearly have no clue as to what you are talking about, so please shut up and get informed before you post your drivel again.
Thank you, I got all the way to the bottom of the thread before I found someone calling that idiot out. I served under Mattis (yes, xzins, his name is spelled with two t’s) in Iraq in 2003, when he was commander of 1st Marine Division, and had the pleasure of meeting him on several occasions. Mattis is one of the best generals the Marine Corps has had in years. I put him right up there with General Al Gray.
xzins, you’re going to have to post some evidence to explain your hatred of him.
I’ve been on every thread since the beginning of Haditha. I’ve followed it throughout, and I know what Mathis did and didn’t do. He did not have the courage to stand up and admit to the appearance of UCI, even though upheld by the military appeals court.
Now, your knowing Mathis is no big deal. I know Casey. Think he was an awesome guy. Also think he made some major mistakes. Craddock, Brown, both 4 stars...I worked for them.... and I worked with McChrystal’s brother.
Take your name-dropping home and give it to yo momma.
Hopefully, Mathis will be confined to a desk and a word processor.
