"Unlike old soldiers who once just faded away, as Gen. Douglas MacArthur famously said, today's old soldiers--or at least the best-known four-star generals, full admirals and other top military brass--are finding new wealth and celebrity. It comes not just in the form of book deals, speaking tours and stints as television commentators but also, increasingly, positions as executives and on the boards of companies that do business with the Pentagon and other parts of the government." (NEW YORK TIMES) The article discusses the benefits of having a retired military officer serve as a top executive.
