Met Joe Galloway in Vegas
Joe Galloway (of "We Were Soldiers" fame) spoke at the dinner Sarema and I attended this past weekend in Vegas. I don't agree with all of his politics, but this guy definitely has my respect. As far as I know, he's the only civilian to ever receive a Bronze Star with V device. (the V is for Valor). He rescued wounded soldiers under fire in the la Drang Valley of Vietnam in November, 1965.
I got him to sign my copy of "We Were Soldiers Once... and Young," the book that the movie is based on. I was very cool to have met him.
