You do know that there are lots of soldiers out there that aren't in combat specific roles, applying the tag chickenhawk to them is stupid and insulting.
First and foremost, the guy was a mustang, he started out as a private and was tapped for a commission. He did serve in a combat front line role with the 46th infantry battalion, and then later moved onto serve a tour with the 1st armoured division. He did work in a non combat role in Germany as an intelligence officer and his final role was as deputy chief for staff intelligence. He also retured in 1998 before the 9/11 crisis.
Basically anyone that attacks this guy on his lack of combat experience doesn't know what hes talking about, anyone that calls this guy a chickenhawk doesn't know what he's talking about.
And based on his credentials he knows far more about what he's talking about then anyone at those websites or anyone here for that matter.
