Two modern examples of political generals, President Dwight Eisenhower and President Charles de Gaulle, are examined; and references are made to previous military men such as General Douglas MacArthur and Field Marshall, Earl Wavell. Also, imaginary experts are called upon to aid in the discussion: Rodney Trumpington (world authority on the working of the military mind), Clive L. Lemming Jr. (political advisor to the United States' State Department), Count de Shambord (on the personal staff of General de Gaulle), and Jim Monday (communications expert at the White House). Includes news clips of President Harry Truman and General D. MacArthur at the time of MacArthur's dismissal. <30mn>Subjects:FRANCE~GENERALS~PRESIDENTS~UNITED STATES ~EDINBOROUGH, ARNOLD~EISENHOWER, DWIGHT D.~GAULLE, CHARLES DE~MACARTHUR, DOUGLAS~WAVELL, EARLLanguage:EnglishNotes:Detailed holdings information: -
