'Ensign Chuck Hord, lost at sea.'
What a great story!
After all, nine months is a long time and this is a much needed tribute to US/Canadian cooperation...maybe now we can get together on a pipeline.
Being chased around your whole career by a youthful portrait is funny. Having your friends mount it in the Pentagon is hysterical. BTT.
Great story.
Great stuff!
Some Journalist with nothing better to do spotted the fake, but not one of them can spot the fake Birth Certificate of Obama.
Anybody who thought that was an 1898 portrait is blind.
Aside from the fact that a portrait would not be that relaxed, young cadets in the 1890s parted their longish hair in the middle and almost always had facial hair, although clean-shaven was coming in.
E.g.:
Medal of Honor recipient R.P. Hobson, Annapolis '89
The "casual" official portrait didn't come in until the 1920s, and at that time they all combed their hair straight back from the forehead, which looked a bit odd as it tended to stand up.
