He resigned his commission and went to work for the NSA and eventually became President Kennedy's daily intelligence briefer. And he  would go on to serve three Presidents and yet, when he passed away in 1982, some desk jockey at the Pentagon tried to block his internment in Arlington and it was necessary to go all the way to the President to allow him to be buried there. Our military establishment has robbed this country of the services of many dedicated men and women by it's backward attitudes. One wonders if it will ever end.</p></blockquote><p></p>
