President Bush: Thank you for your service, what are you planning to do with your life? Me: After the corps I plan to attend college and eventually teach high school Mr. President. President Bush: That's good, thank you, we need all the teach we can get.

Actually all that is is the co-pilot trying to get as much face time on the TV camera as possible...

That is pretty much the exact definition of what they are. When the president is around they are balls to the wall serious and professional and they won't hesitate to push you out of the way if they feel you're in the way. I hold them in the highest regard.

My girlfriend also served in my squadron and we were on a trip in Texas with President Bush. She was lying down on the tarmac taking some pretty badass photographs of me and the helicopters just before the lift when a service agent walked up behind her and said "Maybe it isn't a good idea to lay in a prone shooting position when you have trained snipers on you." At that point she stood up and apologized to the agent who then said "it's not a problem as long you don't do it again."

I read that as "Freudian slip"
