John A.: Doug Bruno and quiet moment after winning gold

[pap49cba]

"It is 5:00 a.m.,and Geno and I are the last remaining from the post-game party that had ended less than an hour earlier.

Geno was smoking a well-deserved cigar and we were both describing to each other what it felt like to ‘Win Gold.’"
