Heard on the news that most of what was damming to McCrystal was, some of his staff was telling the reporter what McCrystal was saying to them. McCrystal was mad about saying he needed 30,000 more troops and it was 6 months later that Obama decided to send more, but only half that number. McCrystal reminds me of either Patton or McArthur. Both ran their mouths. Patton was passed over by Bradley, and McArthur had to step down in Korea, because he wanted to bomb China for entering the Korean war and Truman didn't want to because he was afraid Russia would come in the fray and start WWIII.
