Mrs. Nixon waving, the back of their heads, and all you can see, for as far as the eyes will go, is heads. It is the most incredible thing, I mean, if I had had to plan that [pounds table], I, excuse me, SY: [Laughter] That's all right. RW: as a a I couldn't, I could never have planned it better. It's completly engulfed that plane. SY: Hm hmm. RW: Well, that's a happening that you could never plan, for security reasons and all kinds of other reasons. We hadn't been airborne more than an hour, the President, Bob Haldeman came back and got me out of the staff section. I went up, and I had never met with the President in his office on Air Force One. As a matter of fact, I had had very little relationship with the President, because that was not my job. My job was to make sure everything was going right. Steve Bull talked to the President of the United States. Why should the President of the United States have to worry about talking to four or five guys? There's just no reason for it. If I had been an egotistical bastard I could have pushed my way in to talk to the President in order to get in the pictures and stuff like that. You know, at least so my mother and father would see me on the front page. I just, I, it was just not in me to do that. SY: Hm hmm. 65
