National Guard receives coloring book at gift exchange, told to sit quietly in corner
THE PENTAGON — At the Joint Chiefs annual holiday secret Santa gift exchange, each branch of the service received one special gift for the rest of the year: A working Littoral Combat Ship for the Navy, more bombs for Syria for the Air Force, a new fleet of gently-used Apache helicopters for the Army, and a big, thick coloring book for the National Guard.
"Hey, those are my Apaches!" squealed Gen. Frank Grass, Chief of the National Guard Bureau, speaking over the shushing of Army Gen. Mark Milley.
"Frank gets so worked up when he eats all those Christmas cookies," Milley told reporters, while chiding Grass to "just sit in the corner with your new coloring book while the big kids have a scotch."
