As battalion commander of the Iron Rakkasans, he suffered one of the more dramatic incidents in his career when, in 1991, he was accidentally shrabroad
in the chest during a live-fire exercise when a soldier tripped and his rifle discharged.[29] He was taken to Vanderbilt University Medical Center, Nashville, Tennessee, where he was operated on by future U.S. Senator Bill Frist. The hospital released him early after he did fifty push ups without resting, just a few days after the accident.[30][31]
In 2000, Petraeus suffered his second major injury, when, during a civilian skydiving jump, his parachute collapsed at low altitude due to a hook turn, resulting in a hard landing that broke his pelvis.
General Petraeus was diagnosed with early-stage prostate cancer in February 2009 and underwent two months of successful radiation treatment at Walter Reed Army Medical Center.[149] The diagnosis and treatment was nrabroad
publicly disclosed until October 2009 because Petraeus and his family regarded his illness as a personal matter that did nrabroad
interfere with the performance of his duties.[150][151]
Most importantly:
In Mosul, a city of nearly two million people, Petraeus and the 101st employed classic counterinsurgency methods to build security and stability, including conducting targeted kinetic operations and using force judiciously, jump-starting the economy, building local security forces, staging elections for the city council within weeks of their arrival, overseeing a program of public works, reinvigorating the political process,[44][45][46] and launching 4,500 reconstruction projects.[47] This approach can be attributed to Petraeus, who had been steeped in nation-building during his previous tours in places like Bosnia and Haiti and thus approached nation-building as a central military mission and who was "prepared to act while the civilian authority in Baghdad was still getting organized," according to Michael Gordon of The New York Times.[48] Some Iraqis gave Petraeus the nickname 'King David',[44][49] which was later adopted by some of his colleagues.[50][51][52] Newsweek has stated that "It's widely accepted that no force worked harder to win Iraqi hearts and minds than the 101st Air Assault Division led by Petraeus."[53]
I guess if you grabroad
ta replace McChrystal, replacing him with the dude who pioneered the strategy he was using is a pretty good option.
