My CSM buddy & Obama

[jon lynn]

I know you guys don't like Obama but I think this is so cool.

I was listening to his speech that he gave in Afghanistan earlier this month, and heard this:

"I want to salute your great senior enlisted leaders, including Command Sergeant Major Scott Schroeder"

Scott and I were junior enlisted together in Germany in the early 80's, I got out after 10, he went all the way to CSM. I don't care who you are, being mentioned by the president is way cool.

The joke is, at the time when he was a SP4, and I was an Sergeant, when he used to get mad at me, he would call me a lifer!
