Let's make this birthday one to remember.

87 years old (Born on June 28, 1938)

Happy Birthday, Leon Panetta! From navigating the halls of Congress to steering the CIA and leading the Pentagon, you've worn more hats than most people have candles on their cakes. Your ability to juggle national security briefings and White House chaos during your tenure as Chief of Staff under Clinton remains legendary—rumor has it you even managed to keep Bill on schedule (most days).

Whether it's your sharp wit in congressional hearings or your calm demeanor during global crises, you've always shown us how leadership is done—with grace, humor, and a healthy dose of pasta-loving Italian charm. Here's wishing you another year filled with laughter, family gatherings, and fewer classified memos!
