Hearing this morning that former Army Chief of Staff Ray Odierno has passed. Personally, he was the inspiration for a lot of humorous outtakes, and a solid professional through and through. Until Fiddler's Green, Chief.

All good things must come to end... After 16 years of a steady stream of content ranging from daily cartoons to discussion threads, Doctrine Man is going to follow the sunset on June 6. More news will follow, but the time has come to exit stage left. It's been a hell of a ride.

"The Army hates sleep." I came up in a generation where many officers measured their leadership ability in terms of how little they slept. This only served to produce punch-drunk leaders who were too sleep-deprived to think straight.

As someone far smarter than me mentioned today: "The A-10 is not a Gen 5 aircraft that is going to defeat the newest air defenses that exist. The A-10 is the monster that comes in after those defenses have been defeated and cleans up the battlefield."

Random things you learn from the internet. A "butt" is an actual measure of wine equal to 126 gallons. So, a buttload is a real thing. A butt-ton, according to this, would be 378 gallons. #nowyouknow
