Cool but also scary department: Gabe is doing a paper on "Grandpa Mike," AKA my Dad, who died before Gabe was born. There's a lot of printed information on my Dad available due to his high rank in the Army and long military career. Anyhoo, Gabe emailed me a link today to a comment praising my father's comaraderie (sp?) with his men, obviously made by an enlisted man. This guy said my dad removed his rank insignias so he could go to the NCO club with his guys and have beers, which sounds just like my Dad. But I clicked on the guy's name on this post and it took me to his blog, which is a really, really scary ultra-right wing thing where he's posting about how he hopes Obama is taken hostage, etc. Obviously he does not share my father's temperament, LOL.
