Pres Bush interviewed by George Stephanopoulos. Sitting with the Pres is SGM Chris Self C/4/5th SFG who was wounded in 2005 in Iraq and lost a leg and will be riding the Warrior 100 in Texas.

Great interview about a great cause. SGM Self is a fine example of what dedication and determination mean. It's awesome to think that today, warriors can continue to serve their county after receiving major injuries like his. More than being able to serve physically, I admire their dedication to want to continue on. Great Job Sergeant Major!

President Bush also fixed the disability issue with the concurrent receipt bill allowing the SGM to draw disability and his retirement pay when it comes around.
GW does love soldiers and it shows.

Cool video of the Warrior 100 held April 25-27 in the Big Bend area of Texas: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPfUGL-GHpc

It's great President Bush and Lance Armstrong were involved, but even better that the video focused on the warriors. Inspiring....
