The Good That Men Do Is Oft Interred With Their Bones

 
General Sir Patrick Nicholas Yardley Monrad Sanders the Chief of the General Staff at Army Foundation College Harrogate on the 11th of August 2022
 
 
In stark contrast to his predecessors,General Sir Patrick Nicholas Yardley Monrad Sanders' time as the Chief of the General Staff of the British Army has been a litany failure: failure to radically disorganise the army; failure to make it smaller but leaner and more agile; failure to waste thousands of millions of pounds on ill conceived and poorly executed procurement projects; failure to achieve a humiliating defeat at the hands of Third World peasants; and failure to speak using only buzzwords and acronyms (although he did once use the word "gift" as a verb,which is unforgiveable),all of which might explain rumours that he is to be replaced by someone more "suitable".
