A Slip of the Presidential Tongue
Former POW Lt. Col. John Dramesi of Tacoma presented an American flag he fashioned secretly while in prison to President Nixon Friday in the White House Oval Office. As he received the flag, Nixon kidded Dramesi, advising him to accept all the invitations to Washington dinner parties he can get.
