This thread again shows that a person's view of another is based on their interactions with each other in a given point in time.

Even with a Battalion Commander, two individuals perceptions of the Commander can be very different and based on what they, their team and Company were doing under that BC.

LTG (R) Tangney is on steroids as treatment for some condition.

Not a fan of his, but that is the deal with his size.
