...human kindness. In the event of a hegira from his high-ceilinged mansion to this land of canvas canopies, we would ask him in his magnanimity to overlook the selfish taunts of privates earning $83.30 base pay per month with wife and children back in the States. I trust he'll excuse these impetuous youths for not understanding modern patriotism. Our best to Mr. Namath also...

His voice broke as he said: "You have displayed an integrity so unquestioned that, while I would still prefer to go myself, I am willing to trust my sons [he has three, aged 14 to 24] to your administration, knowing that there is an intellectual and compassionate human at the helm." As the honoris causa hood was placed over McNamara's head, the crowd stood again and clapped...
