I find it hard not to question a media outlet which doesn't even take the time to varify the names of their sources.
For all the public knows, Gen. Randy Hillier could be Ricks evil twin brother who likes to dress up in CADPAT and give erroneous information at mock press conferences.
Either that, or Gen Hilliers first name is actually Randy, and we've just been getting it wrong this whole time. In that case, he's been pretty forgiving about it.
