Another good one by Kurt.
Except Powell wasn’t a Boomer.
First, Powell was not a Boomer. Baby boomers - born after WW II (1945) to 1963. Powell was born in 1937. He was not a boomer.
Second, Powell never went to much less graduated from West Point. That is a simple fact the author should have known or at least researched.
Third, the media initially did not come out and say he was vaccinated. Also, there is no mention in the article of his other ailments. He did not die of COVID.
I read Powell's autobiography years ago, while also reading Schwarzkopf's autobiography. I was not impressed with either man. Compared to the great military leaders the United States has produced - Eisenhower, Power, Marshall, Bradley, Pershing, Nimitz, Halsey, etc., Powell and Schwarzkopf - in my opinion - were ticket punchers. I considered Powell to be in the McClellan category.
No mention on how Powell knew who leaked that CIA woman’s name to the press but would not say so during a cabinet meeting. He knew because it was his own man that did it.
Let’s be blunt. Powell was an affirmative action hire, promoted by President Reagan beyond his station. He rode on his race to achieve his positions.
