Guess what, I was expecting a Marshal of the S.U. Pavel Rotmistrov, but instead I was nominated a Teddy Roosevelt!

I took the test twice. The first time around, I found out that i'd do things the way Wesley Clark would. The second time around, I would have done things the way General Thomas J. Stonewall Jackson would have ;-))

I thought I might have had more of a Patton type of personality as I chose the first time the way I thought he might have chosen to do. However, im happy to have made choices that a great Confederate General might have made :-D
