I just came back from a local park where I went to the top of a small hill and had a beer with him. It's the same place I go to have a beer with my dad every year on his birthday.
The General and Tommy Franks were the only brass I ever met that weren't phuquing politicians.

The Bear was a Friend of my Father. They served together at the Pentagon in the mid '60s.

I will miss Uncle Bear.

A warrior general unlike the pencil pushers and ass kissers we have now. They don't make them like him anymore.

RIP General!
