RALLY FOR AMERICA: "Thank you, U.S. Military" from Louisville. 4-19-2003

Posted on 04/20/2003 5:39:18 PM PDT by BlueOneGolf

Today the Louisville Support our Troops Coalition held a "Thank the Troops Rally" on the steps of the Jefferson County Court House. The rally was attended by more than 100 people, many of whom have loved ones deployed overseas.

The rally included speeches by local ministers and elected officials. Many held flags and signs saying "Thank You" to our men and women serving overseas in Iraq.

The group posed for a group photograph on the steps of the Jefferson County Courthouse. Louisville Support our Troops Coalition is asking that local media outlets post this photograph on their websites so that families of local service men and women can email the link to their loved ones overseas.

This is the photo we took on the Courthouse steps in Downtown Louisville, KY. It came off my email so I hope it posts okay. If not, FReeper Drudge's minion will post more pics shortly. You can't see me but I'm the one holding the "I Support the 3rd Infantry Division" sign.

One of my favorite miscellaneous pics from Ft. Campbell:

This is where I got my 101st flag. Sign says: KICK SOME ASS SCREAMING EAGLES! "RENDEZVOUS WITH DESTINY"
