True: "he would probably tell me not to get bogged down in the pettiness of others, to hold fast to what I know is truly honorable, and to focus on the things that are most important: personal responsibility, hard work, commitment to family and community, and an open hearted humility that recognizes the equal opportunity that America really stands for." I'm not sure about the last bit re: humility, for look who America elected as president: Humility?
When it came time for him to put up or shut up re the draft and Vietnam, Trump claimed he had "bone spurs". I wouldn't have wanted him in my platoon anyway since he couldn't or wouldn't "keep up" and be gripping all the time. We never left a guy behind, but that would have been the last time he would have gone out with us.

A good story. Good story. Watch your spelling and grammar since they trip the reader up when s/he is easing along with your interesting storyline.
Delightful and sweet.
