WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama is still getting used
to some details of his new life, including the fact he has to duck
when boarding his presidential helicopter.
The 6-foot-1-inch Obama bumped his head Monday morning when
boarding Marine One on the White House's south lawn. He misjudged
the doorway and banged his head on the low doorway.
It was Obama's fifth flight aboard the helicopter, which ferried
him to Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland. He then flew on Air
Force One to Indiana to promote an economic stimulus package that
Congress is weighing.
