I think it was about 7th grade when my dad brought that signed picture home from work with him (he was Chief Counsel at Walter Reed at the time). I lost track of it until about 20 years ago when I found it stuffed in between the pages of my high school yearbook when packing up stuff to move to our current house (~30 years after I got the picture).

A funny coincidence occurred just a couple of days after finding Ike's picture. On a business trip to Tulsa, I hopped into the hotel limo to go back to the airport and damned if David Eisenhower wasn't in the limo too. I told him about how I just found an autographed picture of this grandfather just a couple of days earlier and how my dad and his grandfather had been friends.
