![]() I hope he has heard, too, my profession of gratitude for his friendship and love these many years. Once or twice that turned out to be the young senator from Delaware. My duties included, as he mentioned earlier, escorting senate delegations on overseas trips, and in that capacity, I supervised the delegation’s luggage, which could require – now and again – when no one of lower rank was available for the job – that I carry someone else’s bag. Joe was already a Senator, and I was the Navy’s Liaison to the Senate. ![]() ![]() ![]() We knew each other back when we were young and handsome and smarter than everyone else but were too modest to say so. Vice President Biden and I have known each other for a lot of years now, more than forty, if you’re counting. Thank you, Joe, my old dear friend for those mostly undeserved kind words.
