Gusnsareok pays us a visit from Roanoke, VA
Mid Freep 9 fire trucks (pumpers and Hook & Ladders), 2 police cars and 2 meat wagons went roaring by.
I have no information as to the cause for the alarm.
We have no picture of Legs Trooprally but he relates the following.
I was standing on the northwest corner, doing my patriotic duty, when a car stopped at the light. A lady (50ish) was in the passenger seat saying something to me. The limp leftists usually do that, something about no back bone to speak up.
So not knowing all of what she said, I responded that weve freed 25 million people in Iraq and Afghanistan. That our troops are winning the War on Terror. We need to support them and their mission.
She responded by saying what can we do, we have to vote democrat.
My answer, I dont.
You dont vote democrat? she asked.
Nope, I vote Republican.
Her answer as the car finally got the green light and started to drive on: Ohhh Myyyy GOD That is my chuckle of the night and Im sticking to it.
Moon bats or is it Moan bats?
Self explanatory
Return of our heroes from a night out with family.
Special hat tip to Officer Friendly who stopped traffic so the bus could turn left.
We'll be back out at Walter Reed Friday night, August 28th, from 6:30 until at least 9:30 at the intersection of Georgia Avenue and Elder Street, NW in Washington, D.C. The wounded warriors inside the hospital are heartened by the sight of ordinary citizens cheering for them and displaying our thanks for the service and sacrifice they've made on our behalf.
Directions to our Walter Reed freep location from the Takoma metro station,.
Thanks to BufordP for Keeping the BIG LIST: All DC Chapter Walter Reed FReeps
If you can't get to D.C. to join us but would like to do something for the wounded, you can find a wealth of ideas by FReepmailing Cindy-True-Supporter, VAFlagwaver, or PleaDeal
At long last it’s up!
Great report JV, thanks!
Is that anywhere near the Walter Reed Army Medical Center?
Curiously similar name.
Thanks for the AAR. Good choice of pics.
There has been a police presence ever since the wacko Obambi supporter was putting up the anti-troop posters and threatened Tom the RedHunter and me.
And real good to see you standing this week.
And II - there is a pic of me. I’m in the back ground with USNRetired in the pic of Satin Patriot crossing the street.
The FReepers bought a lot from the fish fry. [Mrs] T had to buy only two pizzas that night, and there were left overs.
[Mr] T
bttt
Thanks for the BTTT.
How are the Cowboys looking this season?
Take care.
[Mr] T
And at long last, Jimmy Valentine’s Brother is back!
Good AAR, but what is Walter Reading JVB?.
LOL, See you tomorrow night.
YEAH, WHAT YOU SAID!
Take a break from Obama’s “Just words?” speech and read the Walter Reed AAR!
Not sure you want to ask me about the Cowboys. I always expect them to have a great year. Check in with me later for my Dancing With the Stars pick! :)
Thanks JVB!
I watch for the reports when I am here just as much as when I am away and wishing I were here...weird huh?
I guess I need my WR FIX each week!
Glad to see you “standing tall” for our troops again.
Taxman BRAVO ZULU to all for the FReep and the pics!
Congratulations, you passed the Scout is Observant test.
Look forward to your next AAR from Texas.
I'll let [Mrs] T and you compare notes on Dancing With the Stars.
