He went to a mess hall where there were a lot of soldiers dressed in camo, I presume they are US soldiers, he said a quick anecdote about dropping in to see his son when he was a soldier, and how that soldier took his mother's maiden name, Hunter. Again, it was quick so I didn't get all the gist of it.
And then he plopped down to sit on the bench with all the other soldiers. Incredible moment.
