Pres. George H. W. Bush visits US troops in Saudi Arabia, in run-up to Desert Storm

I was there... not in this photo, but in S.A. out along Tapline Road," awaiting what would come next. NBC Sports, with "OJ" Simpson, visited our battalion (20th Engineers) that Thanksgiving.

I was there as the SGT of the colors for 8th Calvary. I called Cadence for the entire division behind our new Division commander MG Rutherford. I was on the cover of the Army Times back then. a great memory!
