    @zephyreks Out of curiosity… who exactly do you think you’re hearing from when you hear from the Pentagon? Joe Smoe from down the street? No, it’s a member of the military just like the Brig. Gen.

      Pentagon statements are vetted by their press crews, though. A General’s doesn’t go through as much scrutiny.
