Quick question from you geniuses.
Edited on Mon Oct-27-08 02:04 PM by Midlodemocrat
How do you pronounce Peter Pace's last name? It's not pace as in pace of the walk, is it? Isn't it something a bit more unique than that?

Thanks, guys.

12. I mostly hear it as Pace (as in walking) though
Still, somewhere along the way, some speaker said it is correctly pronounced as PAH-chay. Had to be at a military function I attended.

You welcome!!
