He was the big guy when I was stationed in Germany back in the late 70s.

Like his boss, one of the last guys in D.C. that knew what needed to done & how to do it.

He was a truly a patriot. The liberals and the media hated him profusely, and he never backed away from an opportunity to embarrass them. They will no doubt use the next few days to try to destroy his reputation.
