They only one I missed was the last one. I had no idea on that.
Okay, I only missed the ATC question (I said 24) and the date of the marriage to Nancy Davis (I said 1956). I admit I got lucky with the educate guess of T-10.
In the “Answers” section, question 15 is T-10, but that was choice b, not a.
I got 11 correct and feel okay about that. Some of the questions were pretty tough.
I only got 11. I got all the stuff related to his presidency, but wasn’t up to speed on some of the early years stuff.
I got all except the last one—my guess was T-2.
They forgot one:
When did Reagan cover up a disaster like Benghazi?
In 1983 debacle, Reagan escaped the blame game
...
The Reagan administration immediately attempted to deflect blame for the attack with a deluge of false statements and misrepresentations. In a televised speech four days after the bombing, the president insisted the attack was unstoppable, erroneously declaring that the truck crashed through a series of barriers, including a chain-link fence and barbed-wire entanglements, and argued that the U.S. mission was succeeding.
Despite the fact that Reagan had dispatched the Marines into an impossible situation and then had issued orders that led to their inability to defend themselves, he suffered relatively little criticism from the press or partisan opponents, and after months of vigorous campaigning was overwhelmingly re-elected the following year.

Operation Urgent Fury, the Invasion of Grenada was October 1983, not 1982. I was serving at MCAS Cherry Point, NC at the time. Specifically, it was October 25 - 15 December 1983. Easy to remember because we lost our 241 Servicemen in Beirut on the 23rd of October. If memory serves, we lost 237 US Marines, 4 US Sailors and 2 US Soldiers. I’ll have to check those figures.
Missed two, guessed the rest...
Twelve out of 15.
