Re: "The Inchon Landing: An Example of Brilliant Generalship"



Even though it is a subjective evaluation on my part.

I am going through a thorough series of courses that make such observations.
Been doing doing this for several months each year.

Having a damaged self esteem does not always prevent people from becoming
successful leaders. It does explain some of how he manages things.
My comment was not about social/economic/moral standards.
Just an observation on my part from case studies.

The scaring of a person self esteem is life long.
It can be improved bu the scaring is permanent.
The courses teach identification, methods to work with,
avoid the conflict and get good productivity.

My comment about Gen MacArthur life as a child is consistent to what
the Psycologists have written about.
He was harshly harrassed at the US Military Acedemy.
More then any of his classmates.
