Quote 274 of 497

For the same reasons that McNamara liked him, Enthoven drove most
military officers, especially Air Force officers, half crazy.  First,
it was his arrogance that bothered them.  Arguing with one general
about nuclear war plans, Enthoven finally stated, "General, I have
fought just as many nuclear wars as you have."
