situation like this, intelligence starts and president bush was accompanied by another iconic american who was national security adviser at the time. and i did my briefing and then we walked out on to the center and a lot of enlisted troops are sitting there at their computer terminals, and president bush, the humanist and human that he was, wanted to go around and meet every one of those enlisted people. and talked to them and asked them where they're from and how long they've been in the service, and, of course, this is a life memory for each and every one of those enlisted people. well, this really threw the schedule off. much to the chagrin of our commander, it just illustrates what a great human being president bush was. i later had some encounters with him in subsequent incumbancy, that encounter. just his outreach to people in this case, very junior people, left a great impression on me.
