with Reagan’s own boots positioned facing the rear in its stirrups

Since I was watching on C-SPAN with no commentary, I'd wondered if those weren't his boots. I thought they looked like some I've seen in wearing in photos taken when he was riding. I got this notion because they were brown, rather than the usual black, and were of a slightly different style than the military boots one usually sees in these circumstances.

One person in our vicinity called out, ‘God bless you, Nancy’

That was clearly audible on the C-SPAN coverage, so it was heard by millions.

They were flown in from the ranch. And, from their appearance, they were not even polished (somewhat worn and scuffed) -- which only served to add to their significance and genuineness.

Joanie, good post and pictures. Thank you.

I was trying to keep up with the live thread last night, and there was speculation that the person who called out "God bless you Nancy" was a Freeper. Any confirmation of that? Some posters believed they recognized the voice.
