Bab 932: Chapter 697: A Mishmash of Equipment

The general in charge of resisting the Canadian army's advance was Arthur MacArthur, Chief of Staff of the United States Army.

Some might wonder, given that President Hoover and MacArthur had already clashed, why it was still MacArthur leading the American army into battle against the Canadian forces.

In fact, a glance at the current reserves of army generals in the United States would explain why.

If the American army is said to be raised by a stepmother, then its generals are orphans.

The incredibly low number of personnel in the United States army has resulted in an equally meager reserve of army generals.

The rationale is simple: there are only so many army troops, so there are only so many general positions available.

To create an additional general in the United States army, an existing one must retire.
