Jackson’s Bistro is the nicest restaurant within walking distance of the Tampa Convention Center, and right now, at lunchtime, it is overrun with soldiers in fatigues. The place is like an anthill. From the elevated bar, where I am waiting for the host to grant me a blessed table, you can see a line of soldiers meandering back toward the convention center, which looks like a toy ocean liner from this angle, all decks of sunny windows propped up on sand-colored columns.
