Another great leader passes, and we are left with trash in their place.

My son just commissioned in the Army. I hope he gets to serve under a true leader like General Schwarzkopf.

He was certainly someone you could look up to. I read his Autobiography "It doesn't take a Hero" . Very interesting Man.

He and Patton are probabally swapping stories now. They dont make guys like that very often. Thank you for your service Norman. You will be missed by many.
