As the Pentagon Turns.......

Apparently Joint Chiefs head General Peter Paces departure has become a little messy. It's not really a surprise when one considers the Bush Administrations history of questionable treatment of the military. Not to excuse Paces leadership but a greay many careers,in paricular Army ones, have been ended over the conduct of Bush's War. It is interesting to note that of all the major Commands only two are currently commanded by an Army General. Perhaps it should come as no surprise that Paces ' succesor is an Admiral. I guess Bush thinks he'll get less argument from the groud war experts in the Navy. The Bush War--fought by the an Army not trusted by it's civilian political masters and commanded by the Navy. A winning formula in an age of land based counter insurgancy operations
