Not That Charlie Brown

Seen here is Charles Q. Brown Jr., probably the most powerful Charlie Brown there has ever been… except they didn’t call him “Charlie”. Mostly, they called him “sir”, as he rose through the ranks of the United States Air Force to become a four-star general… and then the Air Force Chief of Staff, and then Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the highest military position that the US has.
