Does this explain anything?

John Bolton is 5 foot 7 inches tall.

This surprises me, figuring he was 6 foot plus.

As a short guy myself, I'm fairly aware of the "Napoleon Complex" being ascribed to men of our height. However, I do not start nor gin up reasons for wars.

2. That hair-trigger is why I looked to see if he had ever served,

and how I stumbled across his height.
