We cannot continue to be historical illiterates. We cannot continue to be a nation of non-readers. The correlation between reading, intellectual curiosity, and long term human success isn’t a myth.
George Marshall is perhaps my favorite general in U.S. history. In this current era when three of our generals could very well end up running the country from a practical sense, this might be a nice time to look back on the iconic legacy of General George Marshall.
Not a flashy guy. Not an egomaniac. But more a forward thinker who exuded quiet class and confidence during some of America’s most trying times in history.
America could genuinely use George Marshall right now.
Maybe when General McMaster tucks in Caligula tomorrow night, he could read our president some General Marshall bedtime stories instead of another Dick and Jane sport fucking bedtime story.
Or maybe not.
