From The Associated Press:
Vice President-elect Mike Pence recalled his late father’s modesty over his Korean War service during a Veterans Day speech in Indiana that included only brief mentions of Donald Trump’s coming accession to the presidency.
Pence didn’t speak about Friday’s announcement that he is becoming leader of Trump’s transition team during his remarks at the Indiana National Guard’s Camp Atterbury. Reporters were kept at a distance.
The Indiana governor told about 200 people that he and others who didn’t serve in the military should be especially grateful to those such as his father and his son, who became a Marine Corps officer last year.
