The team had a dining out last night at Maggiano's in downtown Denver. We all had a good time. Everyone was able to make it except for about 3 couples who were already on leave. It was amazing the response the general public gave us all. The people in the Springs are used to all the military, but people in Denver were not. Several people bought everyone rounds of drinks and tons of people stopped to shake their hands and sincerely thank them. It was really heartwarming. One guy didn't say anything but gave Sean a high-five as we walked downtown. It was kind of humorous. Of course we did run into some knuckleheads that wanted to argue foreign policy, but no one let it ruin a good night.
