He's a beautiful fellow, isn't he.
Actually, he was a carriage race horse IIRC???
I saw that special on Sgt. York, too. He's a small horse, beautiful, perfect for the job. Wonderful to see him get the honor. I'm beaming here...and RR's own boots will be used, too. Couldn't be better...by the way, did you all notice Michael Reagan at the library this afternoon? He came back and stayed alone by the coffin for a few minutes before they let the public in, having one last loving talk with his dad. I was very moved...also seeing Merv Griffin there. He's been such a close and wonderful friend of the Reagans forever. He's one of the pall bearers. I wonder if sometimes he thinks, who knew? You become friends way back, share similar beliefs, chemistry is perfect. And then your best friend, against all odds, becomes gov. of Cal. for two terms, and then Pres. of the US for two terms, frees the world from the communist menace without firing a shot, revolutionizes the economy, gives the country back its sense of pride and place. Absolutely amazing...and all this with a press in bed with the RATs. Well, who says this isn't a great country!
I think I saw the same special. One of the things that intrigued me, was that the horses are given "crewcuts" just like the men. Their manes are shaved.
I remember seeing something about him too. It is amazing.
