We will leave from this location and continue to the travelling Liberty Bell at the American Legion.
God bless you for doing this, our prayers are with the families.
Great that people will go and support these brave guys.
YOU HEARD IT AR FREEPERS!
Tell your boss that "you are going to the eye doctor". When they ask why, tell them, "I can't see a better reason for leaving work than to go to this FREEP supporting our soliders, victim of a terrorist attack in Little Rock!!"

Can’t get there that quickly from South Mississippi. i read somewhere that Pvt Long’s funeral will be on Monday. Do you know if the Patriot Guard has been invited to participate in that, if so, i might be able to participate then.
dc I am thinking about swinging by there on my way home, do you think it would be prudent to show up in uniform? I really dont want to go home and change.
Sure! We can show support, you just can’t attend a political function IAW Army Regs. Just in case, tell your CO/NCOIC that there will be a support rally for the troops at the station.
Yes. Patriot Guard has the mission on Monday for the funeral.
well me and a cohort were scouring the command message and were pointing out inconsistancies, I am sure you see those too.
BTTT
I can’t come, but my heart and prayers go with these men and their survivors.
Prayers for safety going up for all of you!! There’s very likely more like the killer in the SUV, just looking for opportunities to destroy Americans! Be careful out there!
Prayers going up for both men’s families and friends as well.
You’ll have Freep Mail in a Minute!
Maybe post this in Breaking News? Maybe we could get people from Oklahoma and other places there to help.
I can’t be there (active duty Army at Hunter Army Air Field, Savannah, GA), but will be sending my prayers there.
