The soldiers love this man. Bruce has been to Iraq, and was probably the safest man in America when he was surrounded by the Deuce Four Punishers.
=======================
From the Deuce Four Punishers' Ball description on Michael's Site .. the special gathering upon their return from Iraq
"Bruce had taken the time to fly in as a guest speaker to thank the members of the Deuce Four. He gave the most impassioned speech I can remember, using clear termsincluding some well-selected profanities to describe terroriststo express his admiration and support for the troops. Bruces speech was so accurate in his description of the war, and so charged with emotion, that he seemed ready to lead the troops himself back to Iraq; and they were ready to go.
Interestingly, I learned laterand I am not sure Bruce wants this to be knownBruce actually tried to join the military to fight in this war but they told him he is too old. He doesnt look too old. Not judging by the reaction of all the women in attendance at the ball that night.
