at 1:03:37 the former Pres. got a little choke up, maybe remembering the squadron mates that were lost.

I don't mean to be a boner here, but it was christened in 2006. Thanks for the video upload!

Back when President Bush was in the navy he sank the Yamamoto during Ten Go but he was shot down in the battle after his bomb drop.
