How faantastic is that?!? Is this the same event that the Committee called the "Commander in Chief Ball"?
Can you put yourself in the shoes of those two soldiers who were invited to dance with the President and the First Lady? The soldiers must have been very nervous, but the President & the First Lady were so gracious. Women all over America were swooning and jealous that that young soldier got to dance with him, and the same for men -- envious that that young soldier got to guide the First Lady around the dance floor. And then the President quipped, "We saved the best for last!" I thought it was a really fitting ending to a beautiful day.
Please thank your soldiers for their service to this country and tell them that we all pray for them and their compatriots.
This was at the Military Gala on Tuesday it was not a Ball, but an event designed to celebrate the truimph and dedication of our military. Many wonderful entertainers and excellent presentations by each of our armed services.
