General Melchett

View Original Source
LoudVainChildishPrivileged
General Melchett is a loud, childish, and incompetent British Army General serving during World War I, who is completely out of touch with the fears and realities faced by the soldiers under his command. Despite his high rank and numerous medals, he is often portrayed as a buffoonish, privileged figure more concerned with maintaining an image of upper-class competence than effectively leading his men.
