Norman Schwarzkopf: America's Final Military Hero

Kuvaus

Norman Schwarzkopf: America’s Last War Hero 14 Jun 2024 --- In the summer of 1990, President George HW Bush found himself confronted with a major international crisis. The dictator of Iraq, Saddam Hussein, had invaded the neighboring country of Kuwait, then turned his guns threateningly towards Saudi Arabia, threatening to destabilize a region whose oil reserves were absolutely critical across the globe. Bush decided that Saddam’s aggression needed to be checked, and sent in the military. The man he entrusted to lead the troops was one of the Army’s most experienced generals. Norman Schwarzkopf [Shwarz-koff] was a military man through and through, having been immersed in Army culture from the time he was a small boy. Highly decorated in Vietnam, Schwarzkopf was one of a cadre of officers that oversaw the rehabilitation of the military from its lowest point at the end of that war, helping to institute new training, technology, hardware, as well as boost morale among the young men and women who made up America’s fighting force. It all culminated in those climatic months in the desert. Schwarzkopf’s decisive victory in the Gulf War not only changed the course of history and the geopolitical map of the entire region, but it also turned him into a war hero, perhaps the last one the country will ever produce. → Subscribe for new videos at least twice a week! https://www.youtube.com/c/biographics?sub_confirmation=1 Love content?
