And I think GWB more than qualified, don't y'all?

Hell Yes! And as a former fighter jock I'm sure he understood the meaning.

Does make you wonder if the President has "Commanders coins" to pass out.
Can you imagine the pride in getting one of them?

I might be misinformed, but The President's Hundred just might. Are they not part of 3rd Regt., same as the Tomb Guards?

I received one from Army Chief of Staff Gen. Gordon Sullivan late in my career...was absolutely dumbfounded by it! So, no, I can't imagine receiving one from the President. But I can certainly imagine how much of a morale boost that would be!
