The RAF and British Army Helicopter units get praise by this guy along with the Canadians and Australian SpecOps guys....but it would appear he has some problems with the British Army non-aviation commanders.

He is especially critical of US Army Senior Leadership.

Were you aware of your guy's interesting history?

Report blames lapses on Stryker commander - Army News | News from Afghanistan & Iraq - Army Times

'Agressive' commander Colonel Harry D. Tunnell of U.S. army Afghanistan 'kill squad' cleared of responsibility for atrocities | Mail Online

In the Tunnell report, Brigadier General Frederick Hodges, then-director of operations in southern Afghanistan, said: 'Looking back on my relationship with him [Tunnell], I regret that I wasn’t more involved in his professional development during his tenure as a brigade commander.
'I should have specifically told him that MG Carter and I had lost confidence in his ability to command from his failure to follow instructions and intent.'
