    General Schwarzkopf ;One of the few great Generals of this era. It is not his fault that there was a political decision to clock out of Operation Desert Storm after 100 hrs of ground combat .
    Favorite quote... In response to a reporter’s question about forgiveness towards the Iraqis prior to Desert Storm the General said “I believe that forgiving them is God’s function. Our job is simply to arrange the meeting.”

    One of the General's great quotes:
    “It doesn’t take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who goes into battle.”
