<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Mac McDonald, post: 7746210, member: 117420&quot;]A nice post for the day/weekend...thanks for sharing.&nbsp; As sons (2) of a DAR mother and students of history growing up in the 80s and 90s, Ike&#039;s life/story was influential in their decisions to become career Army officers via West Point, and they are still both serving today...my oldest having just been promoted to LT COL.&nbsp; And as an added resource to share of more recent, 20th century presidents serving in the military, if you&#039;ve never read the David McCullough biography of TRUMAN, it&#039;s a fascinating read/life-story to include a very under-rated and little-known military service record during WWI.&nbsp; He was no Ike and while I&#039;m no democrat, I was born near the end of his second term and my hat&#039;s off to Harry for the man/leader he became...not just for his actions to end WWII.&nbsp; We don&#039;t make &#039;em like we used to.&nbsp; Happy Birthday #245, U.S.A...![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
