I live in Clarksville and about 2 miles from Ft. Campbell. (One mile as the crow flies) I was at Ft. Campbell when the president welcomed the 101st back, but only got a couple of glimpses of the president as I was in the rear. I was happy regardless

Thanks, Kaslin I knew better than to trust mapquest directions,
however I was counting on the fact that if there were better directions, someone would share them.
Very much appreciated.

You are quite welcome. I have found Mapquest to be totally useless

LOL, just minutes after you said that, they "pulled" the map.

glad to see those heros getting the red carpet (not the Red Carpet in Oak Grove)- wish I could be there...'course I'm still waiting for my welcome back from Mogadishu Dec '93...no parade, no band (band got tired of waiting and went home) no President; four day pass, two weeks block leave, then back to work in a motorpool that had not been maintained in 6 months...hoo ahh, high adventure...

Well you know who occupied the People's House during the Mogadishu attack. Nothing else should be said about it. The Red Carpet Tiny Town Rd in Oak Grove does not exist any more as I have seen not to long ago when I drove by recently on my way to the movie theater to see The Passion

actually, I never spent any time in the Red Carpet...but I really miss Campbell- I started there as a PFC, left as a CW3...if my wife would not have wanted to come to Texas to get her Masters in Library Science Information Systems- same degee Laura Bush has, I think) then I would never have retired- I'd still be a Screaming Eagle Warrant Officer living in what was in '97 the most newly renovated quarters in Warner Park- two walking/stumbling minutes from the old O Club...

Thanks for posting this, wolicy_ponk!
Dang, I wish I'd known a LOT sooner that we were allowed on Post to welcome the troops home. All this time, I'd thought only family and other folks stationed there were allowed. I'd have been up there as many times as possible to greet the troops if I'd known sooner.
Just happened to luck up on the numbers to call when we heard our local National Guard unit is coming home and will come in through Ft. Campbell.
We'll keep our eyes open for you Sunday afternoon. We're just hoping they don't have traffic too snarled up around Nashville with construction on the Interstate. ugh!

Will the TN FR chapter have a sign posted? It would be great to be able to group together and meet one another if at all possible. Thanks!
