# Thank You Jack Wendell

In a two-minute clip from April 2018, Daniel Comp thanks veteran Jack Wendell for his military service and tells him he slept well as a child because of it.

## Key lessons

- Thank a man by name, and tell him what his sacrifice made possible for you.
- Gratitude doesn't need a speech; two clear sentences can carry it.
- Small moments of thanks between men belong in the library alongside the big stories.

## Transcript

_Cleaned transcript from the Asker barn, dated April 16, 2018. The barn notes say the raw audio is very poor (wind, distance, low volume), so most of the exchange could not be transcribed. Arnie did not watch the video._

**Daniel:**  
Thank you, Jack Wendell.

**Jack Wendell (appears to speak German with Angelina):**  
[Largely unintelligible in the raw audio; the tone is warm and friendly.]

(Brief exchange continues, unintelligible.)

**Daniel:**  
Thank you for that service, Jack.
