GULFPORT, Miss. — "We're the heart of the U.S. military. Our sons and daughters serve, and our neighbors build military ships." That's how a fan put it this week as I autographed a copy of "American Heroes" for him during a book-signing session. Then he added, "I hope that doesn't change." He has reason for concern, as do those who work at nearby Pascagoula naval shipyard or Keesler Air Force Base or who serve anywhere in our nation's uniform.
