As Commander-in- chief..is it always an Army officer because the Army is the Senior service?
anybody seen the Cllinton's yet?
If I remember correctly, MG Jackman is the Commander of the US Military District in Washington, DC....that makes him the Senior Military Commander so that is why he was chosen as the Escort officer.
And he is doing quite a fine job.
You can see him being very gentle and easy with Nancy and she seems to be very trusting of him.
