Very nice! I liked his remarks about having the best job in the Army. Too bad we all can't feel that way about our jobs.

I teared-up a little when he talked about the requests for songs, though. God bless our troops!

Makes me think of my brother..... he got his start in radio while stationed in Germany in 69. Came home and became a good DJ, then did a little TV news.... then went back into the military as a reservist..... let's just say: there's no telling where a seemingly small task can take you in life.
