Ronald Reagan!
He was by far my favorite President that I've had the privilege to call my Commander in Chief.

I served under Carter and President Reagan. President Reagan was the best at the time. I had the opportunity to work with GW Bush when he was Governor, Great Man.

George W. Bush is my favorite!
I joined during the Reagan years, saw Bush I cut the force two divisions, then Bill Clinton eliminated 8 more Divisions and 7 Corp from Germany. During the Clinton years, I remember being a Company commander for an AG unit in the reserve and arguing for ammunition to range fire, only to have it turned down by BN Command until my last year.
It all started to change when W. came in, we could actually prepare soldiers for missions and then after 9/11, we had lots of catch up and units deploying after years of under investment.
I fear have done the same under Obama and Hilliary, I have seen the same actions. Cut the force, reduce funding and training requirements.
I will be out soon, one of my boys may serve and the poor smuck behind me will wonder how the force become unprepared and I will say, it started under Obama and I know what Hilliary will do, I have lived that once already.
I pray people wake up and clearly see the impact of our choices, our freedom depends on a strong force.

I've only served under the current administration. I don't have a favorite yet, but I'm guessing it'll be whomever we elect in 2016.

Indeed! I served under Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obama.... Reagan, by far my favorite! You could tell that he really loved, and respected the Military.

He was truly an inspiring President with a vision of America that resonated with the people, and left little doubt regarding his support and respect for our military.
