I don't remember ever seeing anything like this with Bush:

President Obama greets military personnel at the Pensacola Naval Air Station, White House Photo, Pete Souza, 6/15/10

Edited to add: And I also don't remember a CiC reaching out in such a personal way to the troops under his command. I think I would have to go to footage of Eisenhower to get a sense of that having happened within the last century. Just want to also add, as Vice President always says, May God protect our troops.

4. that's a great pic

People always looks so happy to see him. They did not look like that for Bush, and Bush's people probably tried to set it up!

5. Men and women in uniform contributed more to Obama's campaign

...than to all the other candidates combined.

And Pensacola no less. I am so glad they don't let the stupid military higher-ups discourage their enthusiasm.
