The story is in "The Spinward Marches Campaign". I don't have it right here, so
I can't check which part; I think it's in the part describing Santanocheev,
Norris and the Zhodani commander (who was also in his position more due to
social status than skill). "Fifth Frontier War" has admiral counters for all
three; Santanocheev and the Zhodani chief are worse than useless, while Norris
seems to be great at planning and initiative, but not so good at tactics (not
as bad as the other two, though).
