Nicknamed 'Mad-Dog Mattis' by his men, he was a command warrior in the old George Patton mode. He wasn't an armchair general by any definition of that much-maligned term.

Americans don't want to see our military become Republican or Democrat. Americans appreciate that our military belongs to all of us.
Radical Islamic terrorists and those who fund it remain a credible threat to America and a clear and present danger to democracy.

As someone who grew up in a logging and rail town and hiking in Glacier National Park, I am honored and humbled to be asked to serve Montana and America as secretary of interior.
