Dr Raoul was the inspriation for what eventually became Cooking with the Troops

I'll never forget the Vets on the Hill event in 2007.
Chad had brought a young 10th Mtn Div PFC named Eddie to the event.
I had 2 tickets to the Freedom Concert and decided to make Eddie's last days before deployment memorable and offered to take him to the concert.
A series of Charlie Foxtrots resulted in my driving up to New York to pick up the tickets and Dr Raoul offered to bring Eddie up to NJ.
Then he reached in his own pocket and put me and Eddie up in motel in NJ.

I have video of Dr Raoul up at DCPW

The man was an inspriation to me and a lot of other folks.
He absolutely walked the walked and more.

Just DAMN!!!
