	The White Army
		The White Army initially had success in the Ukraine where the Bolsheviks were unpopular.
		The main threat to the Bolsheviks was the German Army that was advancing towards Petrograd.
		The White disaster was the result of two cardinal errors: their failure to have the intelligence and courage to carry out agrarian reform in the territories they wrested from the Revolution, and their reinstatement everywhere of the ancient trinity of generals, high clergy, and landlords.

	White movement - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Second, the word "white" had monarchist associations: historically each Russian Tsar was solemnly called the white tsar, and the monarchist ideal during the civil war was known as the white idea.
		The White Army, in intermittent collaboration with interventionist forces from outside Russia (Japanese, British, Canadian, French, American) held sway in some areas (especially Siberia, Ukraine and the Crimea) for periods of time and put considerable bodies of troops into the field.
		Monarchist tendencies were strongest amidst the veterans of the White movement, republicanism was rarer (the latter reemerged during the Russian Liberation Movement).

		WASHINGTON — Army Secretary Thomas White, under fire because of his high-level ties to Enron, is likely to be forced out of his post in the wake of a fight with Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld about the future of a new weapons program, senior Pentagon officials say.
		White's ouster is expected to follow Tuesday's planned release of an Army report that chastises White's subordinates for urging Congress to save the $11 billion Crusader mobile artillery system even as Rumsfeld was calling for its elimination.
		The Army inspector general's report is expected to conclude that White was not directly responsible for written arguments distributed on Capitol Hill last week in support of the Crusader.

		All of us in the Army felt just the opposite, that there was a long history of that being absolutely true; that the defeat of the Iraqi military would be a relatively straightforward operation of fairly short duration for all the reasons Doug Macgregor had to say.
		Somebody once said, "A soldier's not in the Army; they are the Army." And the quality of the soldiers [has] been the enormous advantage we've had since the volunteer force was put in place, and the quality of the noncommissioned officers corps.

		The fact that Thomas White, a highly placed executive at Enron, has said publicly that he was unaware of the suspect accounting practices that took place at the division he ran calls into question his capability of leading the United States Army, especially at a time when war with Iraq seems inevitable.
		White's signature is on the approval sheets and he earned a hefty bonus from the Eli Lilly deal despite the fact Enron Energy Services never performed any of the services described in the contract.
