THE STORY BEHIND PRESIDENT GEORGE H.W. BUSH’S SERVICE REVOLVER



Hey Lucy,

I hope you are able to see the processional today? Here is an interesting story I wanted to share about Ron Brostrom's father and the rescue of George H.W. Bush. Ron's father, Lt. Albert Brostrom was among the crew who rescued future President Bush when his plane crashed in the Pacific near Iwo Jima. He ended up sharing a bunk with George Bush for a month (on the ship) after the rescue.

I called Ron today just to check on him. He is doing great, now with five grandkids and two more on the way!

Cool story,

Dad
