Generals On the Front lines

Used to be.....
Generals used to fight on the front lines. Both my wife and I are want to be history buffs. In wars past, Generals used to be right there with the troops on the front lines. Nowdays they sit in some secure position watching things happen. Not judging but just seems kind of ironic. The sit back and watch mentallity has flowed down to the general level. I guarantee all those active duty generals are Republicans! Funny how they start leaning to the left once they retire. If things continue the way they are, you won't see anyone above Lieutenant on the battlefield. The aristocracy (Republican lifestyle) keeps expanding in the civilian arena and the military. If I am "cut and run" according to them then I'm proud!
