Of course my sweetheart came out with a winner:
“If we could just line up all the Demorats in DC and let them talk their nonsense towards Irene, it would be enough CO2 to push it out into the Atlantic away from land!”

That’s a good one.

My heartfelt thanks to the dedicated DC chapter for a job well done. Sorry I couldn’t work it out to join you. Hope you have pictures to share when you rest up from the hurricane. God bless all youse guys!

Kind of intimidating when they’re outnumbered 3:1.

Better than 10:1 before Gathering of Eagles organized.

“Intimidating”, I believe you were a newbie back then. LOL

How did you fair with Irene? Early look outside in the dark here, seems like just a lot of leaves on the grass. I had some new grass that just started to sprout on Thursday. Need to blow the leaves off it before the new grass gets too packed down. Several inches of rain here in Olney, 10 mile north of the DC line.

Irene is sucking all the news.

We had numerous interviews with ABC, NBC(?) and NPR. Base Commander Coots came out to shake our hands. Of course he had his groupie media types following him.

I am sure that there is something on their web sites, just not on the TV

Saturday ranks in the top 3 of the most memorable rallies at Walter Reed. Kburi will posting the AAR.

I actually heard a brief VERY brief report on the Philly CBS news radio in which the reporter stated he’d seen about 30 ambulances leave. He mentioned the time frame was moved up due to the hurricane. Sadly, though, no mention of “The Last Vigil”.

Hello JoyJoy ,
There were 21 Ambulances 24 Wounded warriors. I Took a picture of everyone. Kburi is doing the final report.
I looked every where and saw nothing on the new or internet any where. Irene was more important. (sarc)

Hi JJ...nice to see you posting on this thread.

When we get a final report on WR Fridays and this patient transfer I may ping everyone I have ever “spoken” with on FR and ask them to comment!

Good idea? This is a great longrunning event and all to the credit of the FRiends from FR!
