Quote:
Via the Los Angeles Times - Lieutenant General Victor H. Krulak dies at 95.
"Retired Marine Lt. Gen. Victor H. "Brute" Krulak, celebrated for his leadership in World War II, Korea and Vietnam and for his authoritative book on the Marines, "First To Fight," died Monday at Scripps Memorial Hospital La Jolla. He was 95 and had been in declining health for several years."
"In a career that spanned three decades Krulak displayed bravery during combat and brilliance as a tactician and organizer of troops..."
Rest in peace General Krulak and our condolences to the family and friends of this great Marine.
He was a pioneer, may he rest in peace.
I would imagine RJ that any general of Brute Krulak's calibre would undoubtedly be warmed by the fact that you mistook them for a gunnery sergeant of Marines. :)

I am working on a story on LtGen Krulak for a military pub and am looking for anecdotes and memorable quotes.
If you would like to share yours, I can pull from here, but it would be easier if they were emailed to me, so that I can get your information for attribution.
Thank you, in advance, for any who assist.
