Question: Just how many Generals has the lush let go? [View all]

I saw a Facebook post that says the number stands at 12.

I cannot verify if this is true or not. If it is 12 and it happened in the last 36 hours, we have a five alarm fire in our military.

Anyone who can verify something along these lines would be appreciated. I am frightened.
