    He must be thinking. Joined up mid 1980s with an army of 200,000 And leaves as a General of 77000.

      I think it's less than 72000 now it'll be even less this time next year if they can't sort retention!

    The Army cannot afford to lose officers of General Sanders calibre but what is the point of having Generals like Sanders if they have no soldiers to command and support from the Government
