Thanks for posting that photo, Joe.
I was going to pull the thread because I can see by the posts the posters either don’t care about the military or just didn’t bother to read the whole press release at the link.
Because you posted the photo, I’ll keep up this thread.
I thank God no one was hurt in this incident.
still a good link:

“Surveillance Camera Video Reveals Bicyclist Sought in Big Apple Bombing”

SNIPPET: “Army Capt. Charlie Jaquillard, who is the commander of Army recruiting in Manhattan, said no one was inside the station at the time — where the Marines, Air Force and Navy also recruit.
“If it is something that’s directed toward American troops than it’s something that’s taken very seriously and is pretty unfortunate,” he said.”
SNIPPET: “Witnesses staying at a Marriott hotel four blocks away said they could feel the building shake with the blast.
“I was up on the 44th floor and I could feel it. It was a big bang,” said Darla Peck, 25, of Portland, Oregon.
“It shook the building. I thought it could have been thunder, but I looked down and there was a massive plume of smoke so I knew it was an explosion,” said Terry Leighton, 48, of London, who was staying on the 21st floor of the Marriot.”
