Some of you may have noticed that there's a scrap going on in Aden. It's important, because of oil, and who knows how it will all pan out. Will our Iranian allies win, or will our Saudi/Qatari allies win? Maybe ISIS will win. Do we back them? With guns and ammo and PR spin? (propaganda) Who knows.
But we do know that Lt. Col. "Mad Mitch" of the Argyll and Southern Highlanders, had the temerity to retake the Crater in Aden, in 1967.
He was hated for that.
I'm a big fan of Mad Mitch, ever since I was a kid. His Highlanders took care of business.

It's people like Mitch who count.

ReplyDeleteWe have someone of similar caliber, tho as I understand it, he's no longer in the service, another great officer drummed out by this administration. There seems to be an up swelling of popular support among vets, for him to run for high office.
Mattis seems outstanding.
