General George S. Patton war einer der fähigsten, aber auch umstrittensten Befehlshaber des Zweiten Weltkriegs – ein Mann, der Strategie und Skrupellosigkeit auf einzigartige Weise vereinte. Sein Name steht für blitzschnelle Offensiven, unnachgiebige Disziplin und einen Führungsstil, der zwischen Brillanz und Rücksichtslosigkeit schwankte. Während er die Dritte US-Armee in einem beispiellosen Vormarsch durch Frankreich und Deutschland führte, geriet er immer wieder mit seinen Vorgesetzten aneinander – sei es durch seine Respektlosigkeit gegenüber politischen Entscheidungen, seine berüchtigten Wutausbrüche oder seine Bewunderung für den soldatischen Geist selbst in feindlichen Armeen. Patton war ein Krieger durch und durch, aber auch ein Mann voller Widersprüche: ein visionärer Stratege, der zugleich an Reinkarnation glaubte; ein Führer, der seine Soldaten bis an die Grenze ihrer Kräfte trieb, aber selbst unter größten Verlusten immer den Angriff befahl; ein Patriot, der nach Hitlers Niederlage vorschlug, gegen die Sowjets weiterzumarschieren. Seine Erfolge auf dem Schlachtfeld sind unbestritten – seine Methoden und Überzeugungen sorgen bis heute für Diskussionen.

General Casey, Former Chief of Staff, U.S. Army joins Mike Shanley to discuss the role of the US military and USAID in US foreign policy.

General Casey describes how he managed military relationships during the Iraq war and what he sees happening with the current wars in Gaza and Ukraine. He provides insight into the shift happening in the global power balance with China trying to take control. Towards the end, General Casey describes how he managed an organization as massive as the US Army. Tune in to hear more about General Casey's views and why the foreign aid budget is critical to maintain.    IN THIS EPISODE: [0:58] Mike shares General Casey's background. [3:07] General Casey explains what the quote “If you cut there, if you don't fully fund the State Department, you need to buy more ammunition” means.

In the grand scheme of things, that might seem like a small thing, but it's a huge thing to the people that it impacts.” - General Casey [52:23] “I think that's the bane of every leader's existence today, things are changing so fast that if you try to just keep doing the same thing, it's not going to work and you're not going to get ahead.” - General Casey [59:39] “Vision, courage, character and offensive mindset. That's what I believe it takes to lead effectively in any organization, public or private sector today.” - General Casey   RESOURCES: Supporting Veterans After 50 Years of the All-Volunteer Force and 20 Years of War: Ideas Moving Forward-Book Aid Market Podcast Aid Market Podcast YouTube   BIOGRAPHIES:  General George W.

In this special Edition within our special series I thought it was important to introduce you to three of the names you have heard or will hear in our series.  As a person in my 50s who has worked in or around politics my entire life these names are familiar to me.  That may not be the case for so many of our listeners who are either younger or not from South Carolina. Strom Thurmond, the former Senator from South Carolina, was as dominate a political figure in my home state for decades as any name you will ever know. He literally served in political office for 72 years and up to the age of 100.  Governor Jim Edwards, the first Republican Governor in South Carolina since Reconstruction, was also a well known figure for many years. Both men have also been out of public office for more than 20 years or longer. I thought it would be important to introduce you to both men so that our younger listeners can grasp how important they were in their time. I also have learned  in the three years and 12 seasons we have been producing these documentary podcasts that you end up with great materials that don't actually fit into your narrative. In the case of General George Patton we had that issue. Mayor Hirsch met Patton while he was fighting in the war but he headed home before the General died in a car accident near Christmas of 1945.  We found an extraordinary documentary short on Patton's life from the time of his death and it was narrated by Ronald Reagan. We wanted to share that short audio with our audience but could not find a place where it would fit. So we thought we would share it here. The same for another interesting story told by Mayor Hirsch that involved the star of our current long series , President George H. W. Bush. We thought that would be a great story to share here in this episode as well. We hope you will enjoy this episode of what we like to call our "DVD Extras" Ranked 4th as one of the best American History Podcasts of 2024https://podcasts.feedspot.com/american_history_podcasts/ Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Listen now (2 min) | All those firecrackers on July 4 got me thinking about the headline revolutionaries who signed the 1776 Declaration, fought the Brits for independence, hammered out the Constitution and installed our Bill of Rights. Old Ben, Monticello Tom, General George, Alex, “Pamphleteer Tommy” Paine, Jimmie and Dolly, Tea Party Sam, and others got America’s democratic experiment started, and they’re rightly saluted today, from school rooms to political gatherings of both major parties, as true patriots.

We've been gone for a while, but we're back with a bang. General George Joulwan represents the Coal Region just about as much as you can. A 4 Star General and the former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO AND, most importantly, an "East Sider" through and through.

We look back at the big Risen Star Stakes day at Fair Grounds and talk about the huge 13 race card there.  We also discuss some other weekend racing including the General George and Barbara Fritchie Stakes at Laurel.  

General Casey and Ambassador Negroponte talk about their partnership in Iraq after the end of the US occupation: correcting mistakes made by the CPA, adjusting to the reality that the country was not ready for reconstruction, rebuilding the army and police, transitioning to counterinsurgency operations, sharing bushels of pistachios and learning from DOD-DOS cooperation in conflict zones.

Dr. Jennifer M. Murray is a military historian, with a specialization in the American Civil War, in the Department of History at Oklahoma State University. Murray's most recent book publication is "On A Great Battlefield: The Making, Management, and Memory of Gettysburg National Military Park, 1933-2013," published by the University of Tennessee Press in 2014. Murray is also the author of "The Civil War Begins," published by the U.S. Army's Center of Military History in 2012. She is currently working on a full-length biography of George Gordon Meade, tentatively titled "Meade at War: George Gordon Meade and the Army of the Potomac." Murray's essay on Meade in "Upon the Fields of Battle: Essays on the Military History of America's Civil War," explores the leadership decisions of Army of the Potomac in the final days of the Gettysburg Campaign. Specifically, Prof. Murray places President Abraham Lincoln's expectations of a decisive victory by Meade over Robert E. Lee's Confederate army within the broader context of military history and argues that battles of annihilation are incredibly rare and thus Lincoln and northern citizens' expectations misplaced. Consequently, General Meade's leadership during the pursuit from Gettysburg, culminating in the actions at Falling Waters, must be understood within the broader contours of the feasibility of annihilating a citizen-soldier army and the rarity of coupling a battlefield victory with an aggressive pursuit of the enemy forces. Prof. Murray's previous experiences include working as a historian for the Department of Defense in the Pentagon for a year before she took a job teaching history at UVa-Wise. Murray worked as a seasonal interpretive park ranger at Gettysburg National Military Park for nine summers (2002-2010). She received her Ph.D. from Auburn University in 2010.

“If you think every day that when you go out that gate, you could be killed. I don't know how you go out the gate.”  If you're like a lot of people, listening to this podcast with General George Casey, Jr, former Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army, will leave you with an overwhelming feeling of humility. From his selfless devotion to duty (“I really didn't think about it…I had a job and I was going to do it”) to his joyous appreciation for everyday things like seeing his grandkids or riding his bike, we encourage you take a half hour out of your day to be inspired by man who spent most of his life facing mortality head on.

Known for his integrity, candor, and humor, General Casey is widely credited with restoring balance to the Army during one of the most unusual periods in political and military history, and in leading efforts to keep the army relevant in the 21st century. He is on the board of directors of a number of veteran services groups, continuing to be a leading advocate for military families, wounded soldiers, and survivors of the fallen. He now teaches at Cornell's Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management and University of Denver's Josef Korbel School of International Studies, and he also lectures to leaders at companies like Caterpillar, Coca-Cola, and General Electric.
