I was at Patuxent River as a LT and was asked to be one of the many military helpers/escorts at the Medal of Honor Ball when George Bush I was elected....there is a lot of Presidential Balls and I picked the MOH one.
A humbling night; not because of their accomplishments, but because they were all so funny and kind.
I had a few pops with two Vietnam era awardees and they were explaining to me what a coward the other guy was, laughing all the way.
I have led a fortunate life.
