Yea, I remember him and so should every military family who lost someone!
I recall Bush 43 had nominated him for some office (National Security Advisor?). At the last minute, George Voinovich (R-OH) voted against him, so the nomination didn’t make it out of committee. Maybe eventually he got it through...or he got reassigned to a post that didn’t require Senate confirmation.
Friends today, enemies tomorrow....and vice versa.
