    Retirees = several thousand.

    I was going to point - each branch of service has over 200 General officers on active duty. Add the National Guard and Reserve Generals (about another 200) and you get real close to 1000 flagged ranked officers. But it seems you already found the link that shows it a little better.
    O well, seems like 'some' people decide to ruin a perfectly valid threat. Nice going guys... doc bean

    Probably unhelpful. Since he was a Democratic candidate, the White House can easily characterise the comments as partisan.
