When I was deployed to Bosnia I had the privilage of dining with the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, General Shelton. One of the last things he told us, and he said this with giddyness, was their would be a change in the White House and things would get better for the military. That was October of 2000. What foresight.

Thank you for letting me know about this. This is very good to know. Good to see the respect flows both ways on the chain of command. Nice to see some verification that what I see is real and not just PR. Figured it was when you see the picts of Bush or Chenney regularly sitting down with the troops not just up on a stage talking at them.
