I could not agree more. One week ago I had the privilege of attending the Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio with my training company. As I sat in the crowd of several hundred IET soldiers, I noticed a soldier in ASUs walking along the sidelines before the game. As others noticed and became aware of who they were seeing a hush fell across the crowd, followed by a standing ovation. To us young soldiers, just seeing SSG Giunta is what some would describe as meeting their favorite rock star/sports star. You truly feel like you are in the presence of a living legend.
