Wonderful photos.

My daughter is out to D.C. - she is doing her “nursing preceptor” training for Army ROTC Nursing training for 4 weeks. I told her to look for 2 groups - 1 filled straggly people who look like they took too many tokes, and displaying hate-filled signs, while the other group would have patriotic signs. Told her to go up and say hi to the patriotic group and give them Freeper greetings from the left-coast Washington.

(Are you guys out just on Fridays?? And what time frame?)

Thanks for supporting the troops.

Mike

[Mrs] Trooprally is the bomb with a camera, as are several of our other excellent DC Chapter photographers.

Outstanding! You must be very proud. There are some other ROTC young people who come out, and two Army nurse veterans who are always here. By all means, we would love to have her come by and stand with us.

Yes, the Walter Reed FReep is held every Friday. We set up starting around 6:30, and we are all ready to roll from 7:00 pm until the troop bus returns around 9:30. By all means FReepmail one of us when she decides to visit so we can advise her about safe transportation.


Thanks for supporting the troops.

It is our privilege. You would think, after 2 - 1/2 years, that it would get old, but it never does, because of the troops. We love seeing them and having them come out to talk with us. I've been a volunteer for many decades; but it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done.

The nurse is a real blessing to men at war . They are the ones who hold their hands and help save their lives . I thank her and you for her service .

I don’t think women should be combat soldiers, but nurses are the greatest .
