        Gave me chills just to imagine if JFK had followed Joint Chiefs recommendations.

        Interesting comparison with Trump, relying on military for what are usually non-military positions; although Dillon was Secy of Treasury.

        Acheson was called in. Wasn't in administration. Served under Roosevelt and Truman. He was one of the biggest Hawks in group.
