"As Eric Shinseki said at yesterday's NDIA luncheon, referring to the black
beret decision,
'I had no idea that retired Rangers were so computer

| Noteworthy: "34 years of active and reserve service before his retirement in 1991. He began his active duty at the Marine Corps Officers Basic School in Quantico, Virginia, where he was the class Honor Graduate, finishing first in his class in leadership and first in overall standings. He later served as a military social aide at the White House, where he met and married his wife, Lynda Johnson Robb. In what he has since called the defining experience of his life, Senator Robb then commanded an infantry company in combat in Vietnam and was awarded the Bronze Star with Combat V and the Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry with Silver Star." |
