“In fact, over the past decade, arguably no single American has inflicted more fear, more loss of freedom and more loss of life on our country's most vicious and violent enemies than Stan McChrystal." - Robert Gates, Secretary of Defense. This is true.

General McChrystal officially retired yesterday. Good luck, sir!
