For those who have some interest in inside-the-Beltway military affairs, Marine General Pace, CJCS, just quit or has been fired or, as they reported, "is being replaced." I've heard Pace speak, and he seems to be a no-nonsense knowledgeable guy.
"Gates said he had intended to nominate Pace to a second term, but "the events of the last several months" -- the developments with the war in Iraq -- would have made for a difficult confirmation hearing"
With the new War Czar Gen Lute in place and beginning his power plays within the Administration and Congress, I figure Pace was too smart to put up with this crap and said I'm outta here. So Gen Pace, welcome to FIRE!!!
