Hackworth is about 2 or 3 wars behind.

I think Hack hates them 'cause they wouldn't let him be a general.

I admire his support of the common soldier, though.

I believe that Hack was a good man at one time, he is a little bitter sounding now.

He's definitely caught in a time warp. I get itchy and scratchy when he refers to men as 'cats'

"I admire his support of the common soldier, though".

Don't get carried away. Hackworth does NOT support the 'common' soldier when he constantly badmouths Rummy's defense department, our officer corps, their strategies and equipment issued. He undermines morale and sows confusion both in the military and civilian population with many of his unfounded, unsourced pronouncements.

There are other good analysts on TV (without Hack's bitter agenda) who have battle experience and/or special forces background who I'll listen to over Hackworth any day.
