Fayetteville, N. C. — After his retirement, former President George H. W. Bush got his adrenaline fix by skydiving. He made at least three tandem jumps with the U. S. Army Golden Knights, once for the dedication of his presidential library in Texas and the other two for his 85th and 90th birthdays.
The man pulling the ripcord on those jumps was Ret. SFC Michael Elliott, whose relationship with Bush went well beyond those moments in the sky.
« The guy just loved everything about his life, » Elliott said Monday.
