Ultimate General?

[hogdriver]

Which is more powerful?

The General who must force or scare or intimidate his troops to neutralize the enemy?

Or The General who views himself, and his role, as his enemies protector?

He must constantly restrain his troops from neutralizing or fighting the enemy, through intense powerful diplomacy.

How can The General accomplish this feat, to become the Ultimate General?

Or is the Ultimate General really just a good successful diplomat? (One that can type with BOTH hands and many fingers.)

Thoughts?

An ultimate general must be a man who can die for his subordinates, not seek for his life.

General Tasuku Okada (Makoto Fujita) stands with his defense counsel, Joseph Featherstone (Robert Lesser), to hear the verdict.

According to US definition, he was a war criminal, but an ultimate general in the Japanese perspective.

Does this belong in "U.S. Forces in Japan"?

I believe this is the best possible location for the topic.
