Support Our Troops Rally 3/29/2003 "Outpost 122"
Camp Murray, south of Tacoma, WA
March 29th, 2003

Washington members of FreeRepublic (http://www.FreeRepublic.com) joined many other Pacific Northwesterners in the latest of ongoing rallies of Operation Support Our Troops (http://www.ron-siddell.com ). This time it was held at "Outpost 122", the popular name for the entrance to Camp Murray at Exit 122 from I-5, south of Tacoma.

The rally was scheduled for 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM, but as usual it got off to an early start. Those driving in from the north got a hint of what was coming as rally-goers appeared on a number of overpasses approaching Outpost 122. At 10:20 AM, the rally was already well underway...

Good point. That's more obvious than the default one up there.

It was great being there. I just love seeing all those great people supporting this great country and America's finest, oh, and the Stars and Stripes.
