...Vietnam, my personal experience was that not only was there a lack of appreciation for my service, I was instead treated with a bit of scorn for having served. I sincerely hope those who do not have the privilege of serving their country in the military will see fit to honor those who make that choice, such as my son, William Taylor ’04, and his six classmates who will receive their commissions as officers through the Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) upon graduation from Harvard College next month...

Those pieces don't make a great strategic fit, his critics point out, but Vivendi is a far more manageable enterprise. Two-thirds of the debt is gone, and he plans to reduce it to just $5.99 billion by the end of the year. He has laid off about 3,000 employees and shrunk the company to 55,000 people...
