President George W. Bush told the story the other night, in Grand Rapids, of former East Grand Rapids resident Bill Krissoff, an orthopedic surgeon who pressed Bush at age 61 in 2007 to let him join the Navy as a combat surgeon in honor of his son. Marine Lt. Nathan Krissoff, 25, had been killed in a December 2006 roadside bomb explosion in Iraq.
Krissoff served a year in Iraq and now is serving at age 63 in Afghanistan, Bush said.
"America produces amazing people like Dr. Krissoff," Bush said.
Yeah, America does.
