Certainly not as many as there would be if they hadn't restricted travel to the AOR.

My source say's 50+. SGS or Protocol must have a DOR section.

You can't swing a dead cat without hitting one!

Our military has waaayyyy tooo many GOs and "bueruacraps" in general. I saw Cpts doing stuff a sharp Buck Sgt do with no problem.

Back to lurking.

It is a four-star command. A four-star requires his attending three-stars and two stars, and so and so on.

50+ inside the Green Zone? Try being a lieutenant at the podium with 50+ GOs in one room (including 6 four stars). And not just 50 generals - 50 commanding generals. DCGs, chiefs of staff and other generals on staffs not invited.
