This is very sad news indeed, Militiaman7 was the very first FReeper I met when I joined him and his son and two of his son's friends at a Bill Clinton fundraiser at Patricia Kluge's estate in central Virginia back in '99 or '00. We posted up just outside the grand entrace to her estate and were such a nuisance that they ended up detouring most of the guests in through a back entrance just to avoid seeing us...LOL!! Dave had the patriotic tunes cranking from his son's boombox and portable lighting for after the sun went down. When Slick Willie's helicopter came flying by, we defiantly spotlighted the banner I had painted that read,
"Slick Willie, RESIGN NOW...or else!!" A grand time was had by all, including the Secret Service folks assigned to monitor us!!
Dave was a stalwart FReeper, prepared to do whatever it took to stand up to the injustices of the Clinton Administration, and I was honored to FReep by his side a number of times in DeeCee as well. He will be sorely missed!!
Sad FReegards...MUD
