    Is this the same Gen. Miller that Scott Mann mentions in his book?

    Suddenly the M5 Spear makes a lot more sense

    How long has he been retired from the military? Is it a straight rotating door way? It’s not a great look, but at least they got what seems to be a good weapon out of it.

      About 9 months. It’s pretty much a rotating door. Air Force is the worst for this.

    and he’s a gun guy too; only General in the Army who I’ve seen regularly toting pistol or rifle.
