1. I thought I heard a collective 'Hooah!' there.
I'm glad he's honoring them tonight.

22. I posted the lyrics below.
Here they are again if anyone is interested.

At Last Lyrics by Etta James

At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Oh, yeah, at last
The skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clovers
The night I looked at you
I found a dream that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile
Oh, and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

12. It was great listening to them talk to one another.
I'm not sure why. But I liked it. It sounded...dignified and respectful, I guess.

13. And the cheer when he said Shinseki's name
Also the genuine way he chatted with the Illinois guard members. You could see they were nervous, but that melted when he asked whether the one soldier was from the west side or south side.
