Colonel H.R. McMaster passed over for BG

COL McMaster passed over for promotion . . . Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over? What an awful message for the young leaders being forged in today's battlefield environment. Men like COL McMaster should be defining the future of the US Army, not passed over for promotion. I also hope that - as the Third Way intimates he is - GEN Petraeus is not being set up for failure in Iraq.

Read the Contrary Peter Principle discussing the COL McMaster issue at the always excellent Small Wars Journal.
