This is such a bunch of f**king baloney. You are taught “Danger Close!” In the Army. You deal with the people that are most dangerous to you FIRST. S**theads killing a US Ambassador are “Danger Close!”. You focus everything, and I mean everything, on that and start the reinforcements to the areas that have given up assets. Ham is either too incompetent to be retiring as a general, or he is lying.
