Quotes
“It became clear to me and to many others that to defeat a networked enemy we had to become a network ourselves.”
2011 “When I entered West Point, some Americans still believed the Vietnam War might end honorably. By the time I graduated, South Vietnam did not exist. As cadets, we watched the war teeter and implode, and the historical sweep was not lost on us.”
My Share Of The Task, p. 17 “Leaders are not necessarily popular. For soldiers, the choice between popularity and effectiveness is ultimately no choice at all.”
My Share Of The Task, p. 392 “As visible symbols, soldiers often receive praise or condemnation, and both reactions feel curiously undeserved.”
