A propos de cet article

"Frank Carlucci is living proof to all of us and to the world that 'only in America' is more than just an easy cliché: it's a great ringing truth. --President Ronald Reagan Once called "Washington's ultimate survivor by The Washington Post,Frank C. Carlucci III served six presidents, traveled the world on behalf of his country, and ultimately rose to prominence as Secretary of Defense. Through every chapter of his extraordinary and varied career, American leaders had a common refrain: "Get me Carlucci!
