He appears to be saying, "My generals wanted to do this thing and they lost Ryan."

If that was not what he intended to say, perhaps he should think more carefully before he speaks.

Or maybe that was what he intended to say.... 

Well if he's saying My generals and saying they came to him then isn't he taking ownership of the situation? "I sent one of my platoons on a raid last night and they lost a Soldier." Does that now mean I have shunned responsibility?

Or maybe, just maybe folks are trying to hard to play gotcha.
