The general's son, an Army 2nd Lt., just completed a tour of duty in Afghanistan. It was kept very quiet for obvious security reasons. Oh, this is the same general the lib media called "General Betray Us"... www.cnsnews.com/news/article/petraeus-reveals-son-served-afghanistanWashington (AP) - Army Gen. David Petraeus says he has a personal stake in ensuring that the U.S. war objectives are met. His son, Stephen, recently finished a combat tour in Afghanistan, though it was kept "very quiet." Petraeus made the comments after he was challenged by a North Carolina congressman to "be honest" about how long American troops might have to fight in Afghanistan, In an emotional exchange with Republican Rep. Walter B. Jones, Petraeus said "if I ever felt that we couldn't achieve our objectives," he would be "very forthright" not only with his superiors in the military chain of command but also with President Barack Obama and members of the Congress. Petraeus said his son, 2nd Lt. Stephen Petraeus, just completed a tour in Afghanistan.

And I thank him for his service. Just as I appreciate the service of Bo Biden who served in Iraq.
