Joseph Stilwell

rdfs:comment

General Joseph Warren Stilwell (March 19, 1883 – October 12, 1946) was a United States Army four-star General known for service in the China Burma India Theater. His caustic personality was reflected in the nickname "Vinegar Joe". Although distrustful of his allies Stilwell showed himself to be a capable and daring tactician in the field but a lack of resources meant he was continually forced to improvise. He famously differed as to strategy, ground troops versus air power, with his subordinate, Claire Chennault, who had the ear of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek. George Marshall acknowledged he had given Stilwell "one of the most difficult" assignments of any theater commander.

— Poem written by Joseph Stilwell in 1944

n12:

His face turned green and quivered I know I've still to suffer, And lost the power of speech. And stung him through and through. At last I’ve had my chance. I've wrecked the Peanut's face. I sank it to the handle, With aim and timing true, And run a weary race, I’ve looked the Peanut in the eye But oh! the blessed pleasure! The little bastard shivered, I have waited long for vengeance, And laid the Peanut low. For all weary battles, As he struggled not to screech. And kicked him in the pants. At last I've had my innings For all my hours of woe, The old harpoon was ready
