One of two Presidents to serve their country in the Navy.

A group of us builders helped 4 families raise walls on their homes during lunch, we were working down the road. Habitat projects.
Jimmie & his bride where there helping.

I never heard of peanut problems growing up.

It's funny how time changes perspective. I didn't vote for him, and I was pissed how he handled the crisis with Iran. Now looking back, I think he showed great maturity and restraint. I think history will be very complimentary of his presidency. Wish he could be there to run today.

hung on to watch someone else become the worst president in our country’s history

JFK, Carter, Nixon, H.W., Ford, and Johnson are considered Navy vets. Perhaps not all combat vets.

Also on a related note, both Roosevelts were assistant secretaries of the navy prior to their presidencies.

One would be correct in arguing that it was TR who made the United States Navy a super power through the adoption of new technologies. Both he & Churchill were at the forefront of diesel technology, etc moving Navies off of steam and wind towards ICE's.

Johnson received the silver star for gallantry.
