The first one I got to meet was Anna Kournikova. I was really excited to meet her because she used to date my favorite hockey player of all time, Sergei Fedorov.
The next one I met was Dave Attell. He's a comedian famous for his show on Comedy Central "Insomnia".
I had never heard of this next guy before, but he was really nice. His name is Nick Bollettieri. He's a famous tennis coach.
The biggest celebrity there was Billy Ray Cyrus. He was a lot taller than I thought he'd be.
My favorite person there, however, was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Mike Mullen. He is the former Chief of Naval Operations and now has Colin Powell's old job. He was super nice and even gave me a coin. I think that is the most valued coin in my collection, so far.
On my way back to my apartment, I swung by my office and my boss Chaplain M was there. I htought it odd for him to be there on a Sunday, so I asked him why. He said the Secretary of the Army, John M. McHugh, was coming and he told me to stick around so I could meet him. So, he came in and we talked about the Wounded Warrior Center for a while. When he left, he thanked us for our service and gave us each a coin! So, I got coined twice in the same morning!
