George MacClellan

You scored higher than 13% on Unorthodox
You scored higher than 70% on Tactics
You scored higher than 10% on Guts
You scored higher than 7% on Ruthlessness

Here's what I found out:
Ulysses S. Grant
You scored 66 Wisdom, 60 Tactics, 74 Guts, and 48 Ruthlessness!
Like you, Grant went about the distasteful business of war realistically and grimly. His courage as a commander of forces and his powers of organization and administration made him the outstanding Northern general. Grant, though, had no problem throwing away lives on huge seiges of heavily defended positions. At times, Union casualties under Grant were over double that of the Confederacy. However, Grant was notably wise in supporting good commanders, especially Sheridan , William T. Sherman , and George H. Thomas. Made a full general in 1866, he was the first U.S. citizen to hold that rank.

My test tracked 4 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

You scored higher than 60% on Unorthodox

You scored higher than 34% on Tactics

You scored higher than 93% on Guts

You scored higher than 56% on Ruthlessness

Hmmm... here is what I turned out...

George Washington
You scored 66 Wisdom, 65 Tactics, 49 Guts, and 28 Ruthlessness!

Washington first served as a British officer during the French and Indian War, a war which he inadvertently helped to start. Afterwards, he resigned his post to marry Martha Dandridge Custis, a wealthy widow with two children. He was elected to the House of Burgesses and became a revolutionary leader at the outset of the American Revolution, attending both the first and second Continental Congresses. Washington was appointed Commander in Chief of the Continental Army in the American Revolutionary War (1775–83), leading the Americans to victory over the British, although sometimes in not the most scrupulous of ways. After the war, he served as president of the 1787 Constitutional Convention. Because of his central role in the founding of the United States and enduring legacy, Washington is sometimes called the "Father of his Country."

Hin, it just means we actually care about our troops and don't sacrifice lives for glory. Lives for victory, perhaps, but not for glory.

Of course, there is the argument that MacClellan cost the Union more lives in situations (such as the pursuit of Lee) by being too cute with his military strategy. But at least HIS troops weren't the ones that died.

In any case, maybe Colin Powell wouldn't want us, but at least we have a heart.

Which is why we are the individuals who will never join the military unless someone has a gun to our head threatening us. . .because that heart keeps us from wanting any sort of war. . .it saddens me that we think we can persuade people through immediate war. (don't get me wrong. . .some situations, such as defending your country and freedom, require war).
