That is also true of people.  As the saying goes, generals are
very good at fighting the last war, but not the current one.

I'm sorry but, though that's a cute saying,I don't buy it one bit.

If that saying were true, there'd be ZERO national security - for any country.

There are lots of sayings among us which should be relegated to the past - and left there - where they belong...

Thanks, and Keep STRONG!!
