I am pleased that I could participate in a (too!) few of the WRAMC FReeps before I had to move to Floriduh to look after my late mother. Made a few more after I moved, but not nearly enough!

Each WRAMC FReep was VERY special. The FReeRepublic DC Chapter and all the other Real Americans who gave up their FRiday nights to thank our troops for their sacrifices are also VERY special.

Proud to be a FReeper, and glad that, in some small way, we made a difference to those troops.

Taxman Bravo Zulu! to each and every one of the FReepers, Lurkers and Real Americans who came out on FRiday to stand with us against the forces of evil.

Mega Taxman Bravo Zulus to the troops!

Eagles up!

The DC Chapter have always been the most extraordinary FReepers where activism is concerned.

Bless you and keep you.

Almost makes me want to catch up all the missed after-action reports...almost.

This thread is a keeper.

Well this made me cry! One of the best things I ever did while in D.C in the last decade. A sharp salute to all who served rain or shine.

I have to admit I loved every night there.

Some memories are extra clear: Uncle Sam hat, bathing suit beauty, Darth Cheney Vader, President Bush, and dozens of red white and blue outfits and even shoes and handbags are special memories. I can’t even eat pizza without getting blurry vision!

I will miss seeing you all this summer. How about a reunion? I am sure the crazies will make a need for counter protests.

You all did a great job there, year after year.

It was an honor to come out there when ever I was in DC.

What a great response from the Warriors. It’s gratifying that they were so blessed.

I know I really enjoyed it when we went inside to talk to those Great Patriotic Americans!

This Massachusetts Freeper salutes all of you for your often under appreciated efforts to make sure that the liberal moonbat antiwar voices were not the only ones that our troops heard.

Growing up in a military family in the sixties and seventies and seeing how our veterans were treated post-Vietnam, I had vowed I would never again stand silently by and watch it happen.

Thanks to all of you, I had a viable option to fulfill that vow.

I am grateful to all of you for that, and for the opportunity to have met you and stood with you on those rare occasions I was able to participate.

All of you, the Trooprallys, CTS, Guns, Frax, Concrete Bob, Lurker Bill, kristinn, BufordP, and so many more, I feel that I have made friends for life. You know the kind...even if you don’t see them for 10 years, when you do, it is as if no time has passed.

And a special thanks to you two, Mr. and Mrs. Trooprally. I thank you both for the most obvious hospitality you have rendered me, my family (Mike and Al) and friends (veeram) whenever we have been in the area.

But mort of all, I thank you for your dogged persistence, dedication, and effort in your support of our military. Most people on FR will never know, but I do, in spades.

Of all things, your courage to say what needed saying, when it needed saying in the face of obnoxious opposition, was the epitome of patriotism.

Principles without courage is wasted. Courage without principles is futile. But courage with principles is a powerful combination.

That the troops in Walter Reed took notice of the efforts you spearheaded is clear, and it is the gratitude of those who most consistently display both courage and principles that counts the most.

I was unable to join in your rallies because of my work schedule, which is heavy. I've followed your reports and you've done an outstanding job of honoring our wounded warriors. I thank you on their behalf, and I thank you on behalf of an earlier generation of our veterans.



Thank you, God bless you, and God bless the United States of America!

Snoopy and I attended just a few FReeps at Walter Reed. But the memories are many.

DC Chapter, thanks for your steadfastness!

Is this the link in my post that you had deleted? It works okay for me and a friend who tested it for me.
