Oh, come on. Look, we all know how horrible the Slaughter stuff is, but should that disqualify Vince and the WWF from making any patriotic gestures ever again? Okay, so Hogan autographing a missile doesn't make up for Saddam supposedly giving Slaughter a pair of the Iron Sheik's old boots. But it's the best he can do under the circumstances that Vince has put him in. I'm sure most of the troops were thrilled to have Hogan in their midst regardless of why he was there. Even if they thought the Slaughter angle was awful (and why wouldn't they?), taking their anger out on Hogan wouldn't force Vince to change the way he booked one bit. He probably thought that the idea of people threatening Sarge's life over the whole thing was a sign that the angle was working as intended.

 

Kudos to Hogan for at least trying to make a cup of chicken salad out of a metric ton of chicken shit, and showing some hometown pride to boot, as the base he visited was in Tampa.
