After a speech to the Ohioans that make up part of the 557 ERHS, Major General Wayt, Ohio's Adjutant General, posed for pictures with VM and others from the Logistics family... the others want to be VM, of course. MG Wayt came to tell us all what a great job we've been doing and wish us well on our return home in two weeks (we're not going home in two weeks). He got a less than enthusiastic response when he asked the entire group if we spoke "HUA" (the Army acronym for Head Up A... no wait, they spell it "HOOAH" in order to dispute that derivation). He then attempted to congratulate a guy from PA (who wasn't there since it was the OHIO AG) on receiving his Purple Heart, but didn't say anything about the Ohio guy who also received a Purple Heart in the same incident, and who was in attendance. It was a meaningful, uplifting, and encouraging visit that gave us all the boost we will need to finish out our tour.
