I want to know more.
More about Veteran Archie Hackney...more about the occaision....what did President Obama say to him...is the President using BOTH hands to hold Archie's hand?
So far a Google search is not offering any details, darn it.
Makes me think of my Dad and my Uncles (all WWII Vets). They would have struggled to stand TOO.
