Oh, look, here's another one...
Lieutenant General Claire Lee Chennault (September 6, 1893 – July 27, 1958), was an American military aviator. A contentious officer, he was a fierce advocate of "pursuit" or fighter-interceptor aircraft during the 1930s when the U.S. Army Air Corps was focused primarily on high-altitude bombardment. Chennault retired in 1937, went to work as an aviation trainer and adviser in China, and commanded the "Flying Tigers" during World War II, both the volunteer group and the uniformed units that replaced it in 1942.
...Claire Lee Chennault was born in Commerce, Texas
Oh, look at THAT, he was a Texan. I wonder why he didn't go to A&M...
...Probably because it was just as much of a freak farm back then as it is now.
"1 guy"? The father of the modern Marine Corps and the "greatest of all Leathernecks"? "1 guy"?
•Three of LSU's Presidents were military generals, Gen. William Tecumseh Sherman (1860-61), Civil War General who was appointed the General of the Army of the United States under President Ulysses S. Grant; Maj. Gen. Campbell Hodges (1941-44), Commandant of Cadets at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point and as military adviser to President Herbert Hoover; and Lt. Gen. Troy Middleton (1951-61), who was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal for actions in the Meuse-Argonne offensive during World War I and was a leader during the Battle of the Bulge in World War II.

Apparently you are unaware of this 'pissing contest' which has been on-going for about a hundred years.
Come on man, it's Memorial Day weekend, and this is some sort of ersatz 'A&M tradition' thread, let's see what you got.

Military history is one area you don't want to start a pissing contest with Texas A&M if you're LSU.
