"Tell more about these men, Are they patients at WR who hit the street for the Freep?"

Yes. As far as I know, All are wounded or being medically retired. Others may know more.
One is supposed to go home tomorrow.

They are patients, though some have healed sufficiently to be reassigned. They are waiting for their paperwork.

Several of them are now regulars at the Friday night FReep.

Make it to a FReep with Bert and you can thank them in person (hint- hint)

They are the finest bunch of Americans you will ever want to raise a glass with.
And I speak from experience.

They were wounded in combat, and are in med-hold.
The funny looking bald fellow, works for the USO and the tall dark-haired gentleman next to him is from Kentucky and a very good friend of mine.

I just listened to the ABC News on WMZQ 98.7 radio coming in this morning. They gave about 15 seconds of air time to cover the WBC dirty dozen. Not one breath was devoted to the Walter Reed patients or the fine patriots that outnumbered those sleazebags maybe 3:1. I plan on writing them a polite note, with a link to this thread. For what good that may do.

Contact information for the station is here: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1609589/posts?page=510#510
