Before we got situated, Chris and Dan, both patients at Walter Reed paid, us a visit. You can see them pictured in the upper left photo. Mrs T and VictoryNY talked with them for a bit. Found out they both grew up at Schweinfurt Army Garrison as a couple of Army brats. They were friends growing up. Both enlisted and went their separate ways. They both ended up together again as patients here at Walter Reed.

Weather was great again. Been great most of the summer. I know it's going to be a good freep when I can put the MOAB together without ending up soaking wet with sweat. This is the kind of man-made gorebull warming I can deal with.

Lots of spirited honking by north and southbound traffic all night. You always get one or two that'll shout "BRING THEM HOME!" or something about it being Bush's war. Not enough to matter. I can't say I'd rather have Code Stink nearby just so we could mix it up with them like we used to. But I'm kind of jealous of \/\/ayne after reading his last after-action report.

Till next time.

Don’t you just know the guys on that bus get such a lift when Victory NY “attacks”! She exudes spirit even in pictures. Good report, Buford. You’re getting pretty good at this.

Great Report (even if I was there) after coming back from another super Friday at Walter Reed. Thanks.

FYI - You missed a real good FReep tonight. Lots of action. But you’ll have to wait till tom the RedHunter’s report.

Thanks for the report. Great job by the DC Chapter stalwarts.
Chris and Dan demonstate the veracity of the great circle theory.

What a snazzy report and thanks for the mention! I like that picture format and the captions are very neat, too. The peacefully toned background makes me feel quite groovy.

Hay, good report and event.

Chris (upper left photo) is a cool guy.

Met him at an event in DC a while back (he had a great new tat) , the commie faux (dern it) die-in at the capitol.

He told off more than one clueless terrorist supporting trust-fund baby.

Nice to see you aren't a cardboard cutup cut-out any more...

Thanks for the blessing and the kudos from the WR patriots.

To be honest, we are inspired when one or several FReepers go up against a herd of anarchists. We have good numbers most weeks.
