[KS] Ambassador Bosworth, back in the day

[Afostercarter at aol.com]

Dear friends and colleagues,
 
This is a frankly frivolous post, in the Christmas  spirit
of peace and goodwill. Plus a little merriment,
which I dare say we could all use in times like  these.
 
I just wanted to share this picture of Ambassador 
Stephen Bosworth from a quarter century  ago. For 
some reason it appears on his Wikipedia  biography.
 
For a man who pro patria has braved Imelda in full  plumage,
Kim Jong-il can surely hold no terrors.
 
Season's greetings to one and all,
 
Aidan
