Think it's cool Tony and Ryan take time like this,even as busy as they are to show their graditude and or appreciation for any branch of milatary, even if they were never in themselves.ha! ha! During my time in the Airforce,Cup drivers just didn't do that,but i also don't think it was as popular in the early 80's as it is today.Course yah know how i feel about Nascar [Winston Cup] back then, compared to todays racin.The soldiers are gonna love this visit,you can bet on it.

I hate to correct ya but President Carter Did invite A few Cop Drivers to the white house and the cars were actually parked on the White House Lawn.
I feel realy great about Tony visiting the marines, All of our Armed forces deserve visits but I am just partial to the Corp

The White House doesn't count! Corp?Why? The toughest men i ever met were Navy Seals and they didn't mingle much with anyone outside their own.The Marines are great i'd never knock "majority" of them,but they are a breed of their own and my days of the bar room brawl,i fought tougher men.Yes,now and then %hit happens even amoungst ourselves,but it was usually ok by the later part of the night.
