RC#28 My Next Mission by THE "Cat 5 General"
After more than 37 years of uniform service to the U.S. army and our nation, I will spend the second half of my life committed to a new mission: Creating a "Culture of Preparedness'' in America. Every effort I take, whether it is this new Web site, public speaking/lectures, fund-raisers, or the books I have written or will write, will be committed to this cause.
How you think about the future determines what you do in the future – victim or part of the "Culture of Preparedness."

How do I think? Simply. I want the General run FEMA for me and the rest of us. I want to SLEEP at night rather thantoss and turn and thing “what IF?”
Several choices of the present Administration unravelled. Substantial errors of judgement in selection of people have been made, and serve to undermine the authority of the President. Why can’t we get this ine straight, undeliberatively, directly and with the speed of a well greased lightning, rather than slogging on at the tempo of a badly demented turtle suffering of vertigo?
The nasty season is approaching, the Agency has no leader (aye, the interim who, as all interims, jumps ten feet up at the sight of own shadow!), and our politicos are again at their habitual game of retard and delay.
We have the man, we have the job for him, and we do not have the luxury to stand again, hand-a-wringing, and lamenting that “errors have been made, but NEXT time…?
If we are badly unlucky, for mane there simply may be no “next time.”
