I had coffee this morning with Duke. It was 9am Fri. for me and 9pm Fri. for Duke in Iraq. He gave me a surprise call and we chatted for about 20 minutes. He promises to send some interesting photos.
With his work there, he stays in Iraq for 2 months and then comes home to AZ for 2 months. He catches up with family, friends and does some marketing work for his company.
Duke sat behind me in homeroom. Mike Krall was in front of me. I have the privilege of reconnecting with both of these guys who colored a part of my high school experience.
Thanks for calling Duke. I look forward to more conversations with you.
