    Very sad. I had the privilege of meeting him several times. I don't think I could have much more respect for anyone. Rest well, General.

    His was one of the greatest military press briefings in modern Military history, complete with video, both astoundingly powerful and point blank "First we are going to cut it off and then We are going to kill it." World needs more men like him.

    Privileged to have served in his time.
