Good Call, General

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


There is a tradition in US politics that a person is referred to by the highest ranking job he has held. That’s why Newt Gingrich is still referred to as, “Mr. Speaker”. James Mattis retired from the Marine Corps as a four-star General. Now he is Secretary of Defense. I think the highest ranking job he has held was four-star General. Thus I prefer to call him ‘General’. The same is true of Lieutenant Colonel Allen West. He was elected to the US Congress but his highest position was LT. Col. in the US Army.

We don’t need to give the media every piece of information about the military.

“Pentagon chief: US won’t reveal ‘mother of all bombs’ toll”


U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said Thursday he does not intend to discuss damage estimates from last week’s use of the military’s most powerful non-nuclear bomb on an Islamic State stronghold in Afghanistan.

The April 13 attack on an ISIS tunnel and cave complex near the Pakistani border marked the first-ever combat use of the bomb, known officially as a GBU-43B, or Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb. U.S. military officials have said the 11-ton bomb effectively neutralized an ISIS defensive position.”
