He commanded the 1st Armoured Div. in Iraq, where he achieved complete victory (right?). I wonder where he is getting those "60.000" dead from, that could mean from 300.000 to 400.000 casualties or more; 2 to 3 times the troops deployed.
Because he has been checking it personally?, because that is our estimate?, because it never happened before? Generals, sometimes, are over-optimistics and they don't send enough troops and they have to do a "surge".-you can’t issue equipment, uniforms, ammo, food, supplies, spare parts, that aren’t there (sanctions do work) in 2 months.
