Met General Mattis today…

I’ve met quite a lot of celebrities due to my line of my work and this is the only time I’ve ever been actually excited to see and meet someone at that level. I was fanboying pretty hard.

Getting off the hotel bus at the airport, I see him and out of curiosity I just yell out “General Mattis!” Just to see if it was really him. He stopped, we shook hands, I told him Semper Fi and it was a true honor to meet him and off we go.

I’m just glad my Marine pin on my uniform lapel was facing the right way. Wish I could’ve gotten a pic but it was super early in the morning and I didn’t wanna hold him up.
