Richard Lee Armitage, KCMG AC CNZM was the 13th United States Deputy Secretary of State, the second-in-command at the State Department, serving from... 2001 to 2005. Armitage was born in Boston and graduated in 1967 from the United States Naval Academy and was commissioned an ensign in the United States Navy. He served on a destroyer stationed off the coast of Vietnam during the Vietnam War before volunteering to serve what would eventually become three combat tours with the riverine/advisory forces for the Republic of Vietnam Navy. According to Captain Kiem Do, a Republic of Vietnam Navy officer who served with him in Vietnam, Armitage "seemed drawn like a 'moth to flame' to the hotspots of the naval war: bedding down on the ground with Vietnamese commandos, sharing their rations and hot sauce, telling jokes in flawless Vietnamese." Instead of a uniform, Armitage often dressed in native garb, and was nicknamed "Tran Van Phu" by the Vietnamese.
