I think back to when I was serving, and I think back to when my father was serving, and we didn't get thanks for our service on Remembrance Day when we were downtown. I went downtown every year. I've always gone, in uniform or not. When I was commissioner, the coast guard people would stop and thank me for my service. That's quite an extraordinary thing to have happen.
People see somebody in uniform in an airport, and they let them board first. That's an extraordinary thing to happen, and it wouldn't have happened 20 or 25 years ago. It's not anything that I can put my finger on. I think there is a general appreciation that is different from the way it used to be, and I think it's a really positive thing.
