Mr. Volk.
Yes, sir.
Did I ask you, or was it Scowcroft, just before we went to Florida, I said I wanted the Gergen outfit or somebody to work me up about a couple of pages of the quote's
the best statements by the POWs on their love of country and that sort of thing.
It may have been Scowcroft.
All right, fine, fine.
I'll check it.
I'll check it, Mr. President.
Tell Scowcroft I haven't got it yet and that it's for my speech.
I just want something to pick up and he'll remember it.
Then it was Scowcroft and just call him, not Kissinger.
As soon as we get it, do you want to bring it right over to you?
Just send it over, yeah.
I just want to see if they've got any kind of a quote I want to use.
Sir, fine.
