Following Tim Howard’s record-setting performance Tuesday as the US Men’s National Team fell to Belgium in the World Cup, much was said about the goalie’s greatness.
Memes popped up everywhere, though perhaps the best thing to happen was the updating of the Wikipedia page for the U.S. Secretary of Defense.

We approve, but what’s even better is how Chuck Hagal, the actual U.S. Secretary of Defense, responded:
From 1 SecDef to another: Hagel calls @timhowardgk to say thanks for defending USA. We (USA) are proud of @ussoccer! pic.twitter.com/M8nsYdlXFn
