It’s also just about the only monument in DC that you can’t walk to without risking your life as it’s between the Jeff Davis Highway and the Potomac. You need to have a car or take a taxi.

Thursday...feels a bit like the calm before the storm.

Met up with some FREEPERS this morning and took a little walk down the hill. Did find the USAF Memorial and wandered around that site. Very simple and dignified. Up close, the Missing Man spires are very impressive.

There was a small memorial going on for the "Carpetbaggers" See Link Here a special operations USAF group in WWII.

Off to the north of the USAF Memorial, I could see just a small hill of Arlington National Cemetery...off in the distance to the east, I could see row after row of markers.
