When I look at pictures of heavyset generals with acres of metal medals bedecking the whole front of their uniforms, when I see parade grounds with tens of thousands of highstepping men superbly uniformed with ribbons and fancy decorations, I see a military that is dedicated to the garrison life and the trivial orders of Major Frank Burns.
The fight will not stay in them long.
You are right. We fought them already. They weren't very tough, fierce fighters 1950-53 as it turned out. Just like the Viet Cong, those cowards. They did not have the fight in them to win. It was actually really a synch. They were (and will be) such pushovers, weren't they??
