Maryland PING!

I salute you one and all for your stead-fast commitment.

[no-to-illegals]

Thanks for the ping.

I know those who each of you have supported, prayed for, honored, took time out of your lives for, sincerely Thank Each of You. Heartfelt tears for the moral boost each of you have meant to our troops and our Military. Job Well Done! Job Well Done Indeed!

[tgslTakoma]

Good work you guys, for keeping this labor of love going for so many years! I salute you! Mission accomplished!

[3D-JOY]

My screen is all blurry...remembering all the nights we met to honor our injured troops, and accepting these nights have finally come to an end.

Lots of other projects have been made a permanent part of my life through this continuing event. I will participate in them, always remembering and honoring the Free Republic Patriots I have gained as FRiends.

There goes the screen again...hope it is clear on your end!

Big thank you to all the DC Patriot/Freepers who stood every Friday in support of our wounded warriors!

Sending hugs from Florida! God Bless you all, and God Bless our Military!

Hey Takoma, good to see you are still around. Long time no hear and .....

For all you don’t know, Takoma made the 1st two MOABs and had a hand in the 3rd generation MOAB. Thanks and take care.

Thank you DC freepers. I wish I could have made this last rally. For those of you who never made one you have no idea the great company you have missed. Many people will be eternally grateful for you guys standing watch over our troops. God Bless you!!

Friends?? I thought we are “adopted” family. We will meet again and often.

I remember our first meeting in the summer of ‘06. It was at Arlington Cemetery countering Westboro Church. You showed up in a wheel chair after your car accident. Now that is dedication.

[Jimmy Valentine's brother]

First to the fight but joined by many others.

Glad to have been part of the Freepers! I only went one Friday night, but I will never forget it! Thanks to all!

The Friday Walter Reed FReeps were an inspiration in Tucson, AZ where mostly non-FReeper patriots (who still had heard about Walter Reed) counter-protested anti-war protesters in front of the Military Recruiting Center.

In 2005 we had 500 moonbats to one Gold Star family of 5 on the semi-annual Moonbat march. By 2008 the moonbats didn't even bother to have the "official" march anymore.

It's only a small force of 1-4 now that still protest the US military and are countered by 3-6 patriots every Wednesday morning.

Thank you, DC Chapter for your dedicated work and example!

Tour presence was still welcomed. Since our crowds were small, but always larger than the moonbats, you did not get lost among us. Good conversation and friendship was the rule of the evening.

Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule while you were here and “loaning” us your mom.

As I sat at our rally in Studio City that night, you folks were on my mind. As I looked at the time, I realized that you would be wrapping up right about then. I called my boyfriend over to pass that along. We were there with you in spirit, as we have been over the years. Your steadfastness, even through all kinds of weather continues to be an inspiration to this day. All of you should be proud of the completed mission and the manner it was done in. God bless everyone as you go forward in your endeavors! Hopefully someone will pick up the mission in Bethesda.

Forever grateful.
