Ret. Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges was the US Army's commanding general for its forces in Europe until 2017. 
   
Ret. Lt. Gen. Ben Hodges said Ukraine's combat effectiveness standard is far higher than most of NATO.


The former US Army commander said NATO armies should be 'begging' Ukraine to teach them.

As examples, Hodges praised Ukraine's navy in the Black Sea and its integrated air defenses.

A retired US Army general said it's most of NATO, not Ukraine, that has to learn from the other about combat.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
