Gathering of Eagles has just announced Recruiter Appreciation Day, Saturday, May 17 or there abouts. Being a Saturday, some recruiter stations have shortened hours or are closed. Friday or Monday might be a better day. As in other Support the Troop Events, one organization steps forward to be the main coordinating organization. GoE has once again stepped up to the plate this year. Check out the GOE site for pertinent info. Hopefully no one doubles up on a Recruiter Station while one across town is neglected.

This year's Veterans' Day Weekend was highlighted by the 25th Anniversary of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, commonly known as "The Wall". The BELOW pictures are from readings on Thursday afternoon. Thursday night was also very moving. The air was clear and crispy cold. One could just see their breath as the temps fell from a warm afternoon. And all was quiet as the planes had stopped landing and taking off from Reagan National Airport. The speakers on the grass at the top of the Wall and on the stage clearly announced the names of our fallen, which could be heard...

Well, it was back to "normal" after last week's A.N.S.W.E.R's worldwide protest against the War against Terrorism and the Troops in Iraq. The same weekly core of "Lefties" were out there, with the same signs that don't make any sense. One poster even had a sign saying "God's children are everywhere." I have to think on that one. I also wondered where the large crowd went to that was there last week? Mmmm..they just came out of the woodwork, I suppose, to get their quickie minute of fame? I am sure that they didn't give a hoot about the Troops...
