Better make it a stiff one.
Does Petraeus have a son in the military? Is that what Sen. Chambliss just said?
At Ft Benning - I think that's what he said.

COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) - The top US commander in Iraq who's due to provide an assessment of the war to Congress was in Georgia on a much easier and more personal mission.
Army General David Petraeus visited the Fryar Drop Zone at Fort Benning to watch his 20-year-old son, Stephen, make his fifth and final jump as he graduates from Airborne School.
Stephen Petraeus is a member of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's Army ROTC program.
The general introduced his beaming son as "our latest Airborne trooper."
Petraeus also attended a memorial celebration for the dozens of World War Two veterans who were members of the Army's first black parachute infantry battalion, the 555th, also known as the Triple Nickel.
Stephen Petraeus said he is looking forward to his father's much-anticipated appearance before Congress Monday.
MIT! Impressive...and I had no idea MIT had an ROTC program.
