I'm no fan boy. I've been an infantry soldier for 38 years, so I don't get gushy about things. But this man caught my eye as a true leader and a great commander back during Gulf One. I admired him greatly then and still do. He was a soldier's soldier and an absolute gentleman. I would have followed him anywhere. And I say that as a Brit/Canadian, not as an American. Rest in peace, Sir.
General Norman is not only such a great Commander but also a gentleman and kind hearted that his strategy of doing whatever it takes to save every US/Coalition soldier life worked brilliantly. I do not know of any general who achieved such a swift victory in Modern Warfare such Desert storm, Any nations army/soldier would wish to have a General like Norman...even the Zionist state of Israel who boast of 1967 victory had 650 deaths in 6 days, and 2500 deaths in 1973 Yom Kippur war which lasted 2 weeks. In Medieval times during the time of Prophet Mohammad pbuh , the Arab Muslim commander Khalid Bin Waleed was the best Strategist in Warfare, he fought more than 100 battles and didn't loose a single battle, a feat not achieved by any Military commander in history.
Glenn Stockley Really? As if any military person couldn’t be considered murders by the other side. Hitler called all his enemies murders. What about you? Fight for your country?
+Steven Moosa Schwarzkopf was an American hero. Hussein was a thug and he wound up at the end of a rope. For all the death and destruction he caused, it served him right.
General Schwarzkopf died at the age of 78. For reference, President Biden is the same age (and we can see how that’s going so far). I agree with you wholeheartedly, but this man wasn’t actually, remotely, or relatively young.
He once was asked if he would run for president. His answer: “The further the ape climbs up the flagpole, the more he exposes his ass.” And this was that..
I'm not from the states, my general perception is that Norman Schwarzkopf is a highly respected figure. By watching interviews with him and reading backside information I'm impressed and touched. I believe the US should be VERY proud of the job he and the armed forces did in the Gulf war.
Ventende...... I read the war memoirs of General Sir Peter De La Billiere, who was the senior British officer and also the SAS Commanding Officer. He had nothing but the highest regard and praise for General Swartzkopf, which was great to know, especially as potential rivalries could've surfaced. He was honest enough to say that Storming Norm's abruptness and even rudeness at times could've been offensive but was acknowledged as being the prerogative of a commander who was after all bearing the responsibility for the whole operation. That is something which is understood by all men of command. He was a credit to the whole force and especially to his troops and his country. RIP General Swartzkopf.
He is the epitome of the American soldier and leader. Decisive, smart, strong, and all with humility. You guys got the right guy. Hope your country is doing well.
When he was Commanding I Corps General at Fort Lewis, Washington I was in the Fort Lewis Fire Department.. We had the Fireman’s Pancake Breakfast for everyone that showed up and early on who came strolling into Station #1 truck bay was General Schwarzkopf and he greeted those Fireman and families that were present. He said well I better get to work and came over and stood right next to me in the serving line and stay with us for quite some time helping serve and cook pancakes. He was the most awesome amazing man and had such an awesome personality and it was so much fun standing next to him serving pancakes!, It was such an awesome sight watching him in Desert Storm and such a thrill for me to say I knew him.
Authority, humanity, humor, mastery of the facts and a willingness to be interrogated by a free press from across the world. A beacon of how things can be.
My dad drove jeep for him when he first got to Vietnam he use to he friends with my grandfather whose buried in Arlington never a leader more connected with veterans of the past and Soliders of the Present God Rest his Soul will never forget shaking his hand at my grandfather's funeral .....
"Life is a movie; it doesn't last forever." Very humbling to know that no matter how good or bad or horrible your life is in the near moments you will bid the world bye. RIP Storming Norm.
I feel honored and blessed to have served in battle under him. He was the best. I got to meet and shake his hand in the big sandbox. I loved that awesome General!
I truly admire this man. That's why I'm here watching this video in 2019. Doesn't hurt he looks like & reminds me of my Dad. It will be 30 years next year for Desert Storm. We need more men like him. Who will rise to the occasion? Will it be you?
@@kylekullin2520 Eh even for the Civil War I generally find Sherman and Lee more interesting than Jackson. Either way, I find Pershing and his disciples to be the best (Eisenhower, Marshall, MacArthur), with Schwarzkopf to be at MacArthur or Nimitz level, and Eisenhower/Marshall being the best of all time.

Yeah to bad our Fucking generals had no strategy after Saddam and left us hung out to dry with no clear objective.

unlike people like george patton and the british generals in WW1 who used soldiers as cannon fodder,he cared about his men,we aussies had a general in WW1 called john monash,he cared about his troops and changed warfare of the day,huge respect to general swarzkopf,RIP
@Joshua Phillips I don't think anyone could make a fair comparison between the wartime of Gen. Patton, and wartime of Gen. Schwartzkopf. Different technologies of weapons, vehicles, and communication devices, different time in government, different objectives in terms of what the conflicts were all about. However, I agree with your views
Joshua Phillips First off no need to call someone names. Second off Gen Patton was in WWII. Gen Schwarzkopf was commanding a small campaign compared to WWII. Now relax and be nice. USAF, Master Sgt Retired. I was respected by my troops too! Was you?
Not just in that corner of the world probably the whole world. I'd be lying to the 75th Rangers this man is a legend within the Special Forces community. We long for the day when we could have a general like this man. Since this last election we have been extremely happy with the new command structures but the last 8 years were a challenging time for my sisters and brothers in the armed forces.
being ex british serviceman[welsh guards] I think he was superb ..ok the Iraqis are a joke but there was loads of them..my favourite quote..general the skuds are moving around northern Iraq..the british sas are onto it..no problem then ..he replied ..you lot are good but us brits are the best and we havnt lost a war since erm erm erm 1345..
He came to our area before Desert Storm kicked off, and earned my respect because he made a point of avoiding all the officers who had assembled in one area to kiss his ass when he showed up, and instead General Schwartzkopf came through the troops area and mingled with us and talked and asked if we had everything we needed, etc...and then headed out before the officers figured out what he had done. He wasn't interested in getting his ass kissed by junior officers - he cared about his troops.
@@gregj831 kuwait liberation was just cause ...however a war based on lies in 2001 against Afghanistan was a humiliating defeat for USA. The Pro israeli lobby and arms industry will destroy USA.

I don't like to see warring, but this guy is undoubtably a trained and professional badass. But then here you see his human side, the family man in him... He just applied himself and he really went far in the field he aspired to become influential in.
He desperately & urgently need & want hundreds++ more just like him NOW in order to help us lead, fight survive & WIN any future war(s) we in NATO might have to participate in within next few years (2021-2030)

He guy I would follow to hell and back he was 4 star general but he was loved by us men that served with him in desert he truly cared about everyone over there he is missed by all of us there will never be another general like him I thank his family for letting us have him for while
You only get a 5th if you are in charge of the entire armed forces during a major war. He could have gotten a 5th during the war, but it was over before it even started.

@@michelfrancois5358 Still got my "Desert Light" field jacket. It's the only thing that fits anymore. The supply sgt. gave me an XLG one. It was all he had at the time. He was a good natured person. He told me, "It's Ok. You'll fit into it some day." Well, it took 30 years, but it fits now!
I really wished we had principled men like this in politics. He has his priorities straight. Cared about his men, fulfilling his duty, and his family more than anything. He pushed the Iraqi’s out of Kuwait as efficiently and quickly as possible.
God damn why can't we have these kind of interviews nowadays. Back then everything seemed more fact oriented and questions/answers were more thoughtful. Also, if I were a soldier I want that guy to be the commander in chief.
A piece of trivia if you like but as a collector of wrist watches I always look to see what people wear on their wrists. Norman seems to have a watch on both of his wrists and this puts me in mind of Dr R. V. Jones of British Scientific Intelligence who is also often portrayed wearing two watches. Does anyone who knows the General have any idea if he is wearing two watches and why?
That is when we had real War Generals instead of Politician Generals. I was proud to serve under this Brother leadership. A true leader of great men and women. MSGT RETIRED: CLEE
