It is an excellent post. OK OK, I am biased this is my beloved. Having said that, while he was in Iraq, he would send home updates and family and friends would get anxious 3 days out from his mailing.
He may be one of finest FA Officers, but, boy if he wanted to write or run for office I would be in his corner.

"A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own interests of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned. This is sum of good government, and this is necessary to close the circle of our felicity." --Thomas Jefferson
"In questions of power, then, let no more be heard of confidence in man, but bind him down from mischief by the chains of the Constitution." --Thomas Jefferson
