Don't know about Washington, but I gar-run-tee General Patton was not restrained in his language and would not give a "you know what" who heard him. (Blush!)
The difference is that Patton used profanity to get his troops to point their weapons. Honore uses it to make sure his troops are vulnerable to snipers.
And I don't care if it's George Washington himself, if an officer uses the Lord's name in vain I would tell him to fight his own war.

Not trying to spar with ya', farmer18th (hence the blush in my original post), but if you have a look at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1312065/posts, you'll see what I was saying about Patton. I've read glowing reports on Honore on other threads but I didn't see the situation posted about on this thread, so maybe the opinion of Honore is changing. Your post & this thread compel me to check out Honore further...tho, I'm sure Honore could care less about my opinion! He's there and I'm behind a keyboard...guess who wins that debate!
