(http://www.constellationsofwords.com/stars/Regulus.html) mentions:

Regulus was so called by Polish astronomer Copernicus (1473-1543), as a
diminutive of the earlier Rex, equivalent to the (Greek) Basiliskos (translated
"Little King") of the second-century Greek astronomer Ptolemy. This
was from the belief that it ruled the affairs of the heavens,— a belief
current, till three centuries ago, from at least 3000 years before our era.
Thus, as Sharru, the King, it marked the 15th ecliptic constellation of
Babylonia; in India it was Magha, the Mighty;............According to Ptolemy
it is of the nature of Mars and Jupiter.....It gives violence, destructiveness,
military honor of short duration,




Excerpt from: Deborah Houlding’s, “Skyscript”

According to Partridge, a chart was in circulation during Cromwell's

lifetime with Pisces rising and Mars in the 1st house - "a position". By this figure the astrologers of the day "could prove all his Sicknesses, Honours, Victories, &c." - but - "at last he died; and to the amazement of the whole Society [of astrologers]  without any Direction to kill him."
very suitable to his Grandeur and Courage, and for one that was so great aWarrior





Although our astrologers are working from different charts,
different starting points and even different methods of directing, both manage
to direct significators to eminent fixed stars - and as every 17th century
astrologer knew, "the fixed stars bestow notable gifts and raise from
poverty to happiness and high degree more than any of the seven planets"
(Bonatus consideration. 141).



But even the stars reflect political differences, apparently, for
Partridge finds Oliver rejoicing under the direction of the Part of Fortune to Regulus,
the 'Lion's Heart' while Gadbury sullenly invokes the Moon directed to Antares
- the 'Heart of the Scorpion'.

BACKGROUND INFO GEN. McCHRYSTAL:

He is also the one behind the Pat Tillman cover up in
Afghanistan. Pat Tillman was a 1st class Football hero from Arizona (see Wiki)http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanley_A._McChrystal



Personal life:
August 14, 1954 – (resigned – June 23, 2010)

Little is publicly known of McChrystal's early life. He is the son of Mary Gardner Bright and Major General Herbert J. McChrystal, Jr.,[1] and was the fourth child in a family of  five boys and a girl, all of whom would serve or marry into the military.
His older brother, retired Colonel Scott McChrystal, was an Army Chaplain, and is the endorsing agent for the Assemblies of God. McChrystal is married and has an adult son.

He runs 7 to 8 miles a day, eats one meal, and sleeps for four hours a night. As head of what Newsweek termed "the most secretive force in the U.S. military", McChrystal maintained a very low profile until June 2006, when his forces were responsible for the death of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, leader of Al-Qaeda in Iraq.[13] After McChrystal's team successfully located Zarqawi and called in the airstrike that killed him,
McChrystal accompanied his men to the bombed-out hut to personally identify the body.

McChrystal's Zarqawi unit, Task Force 6-26, became well-known for its interrogation methods, particularly at Camp Nama, where it was accused of abusing detainees.
After the Abu Ghraib torture and prisoner abuse scandal became public in April 2004, 34 members of the task force were disciplined.[5][16][17] McChrystal was also criticized for his role in the aftermath of the 2004 death by friendly fire of Ranger and former professional football player Pat Tillman. Within a day of Tillman's death, McChrystal was notified that Tillman was a victim of fratricide. Shortly thereafter,
McChrystal was put in charge of paperwork to award Tillman a posthumous Silver Star for valor. On April 28, 2004, six days after Tillman's death, McChrystal approved a final draft of the Silver Star recommendation and submitted it to the acting Secretary of the Army, even though the medal recommendation deliberately omitted any mention of friendly fire, included the phrase "in the line of devastating enemy fire", and was accompanied by fabricated witness statements. On April 29, McChrystal sent an urgent memo warning White House speechwriters not to quote the medal recommendation in any statements they wrote for President Bush because it "might cause public embarrassment if the circumstances of Corporal Tillman's death become public." McChrystal was one of eight officers recommended for discipline by a subsequent Pentagon investigation but the Army declined to take action against him.
