The Lost City, The Lost Patrol and now the Lost Walter Reed Rallies.
With the BIG 9/11Walter Reed Rally and the HUGH Tea Party 9/12 March closely following these two weeks at Walter Reed, the After Action Reports were lost. They have been recovered from our archives for your pleasure.
WEEK 226, August 14
Patriots attending this week include Lurker Bill, BufordP, Cindy_True_Supporter, Fraxinus, GunsAreOK, Jimmy Valentines Brother, Sensei Ern, [Mrs] Trooprally and me.

WEEK 227, August 21
BELOW: Continuing from last week, things were getting testy at the moonbats position. They couldn’t put their signs up on Walter Reed property. After this Friday the Walter Reed police started to put up stanchions and yellow police tape to keep the moonbats out of this area. It continues today. Every Friday the Walter Reed police put up the yellow tape.
The 8 Patriots attending this week include Lurker Bill, 3DJoy, Cindy_True_Supporter, Jimmy Valentines Brother, Fraxinus, RongKirby, [Mrs] Trooprally and me.
BELOW LEFT: RongKirby conferring with me. It’s been so long I’m not sure what we talked about. BELOW RIGHT: Fraxinus also visiting with me on the northwest corner.
BELOW LEFT: Cindy_True_Supporter and 3DJoy. There is always a good time when 3D is in town. BELOW RIGHT: Cindy_True_Supporter and Jimmy Valentines Brother. Cindy sure is poplar.
BELOW LEFT: While setting up the flags, Lurker Bill is greeting and thanked by a WWII Navy vet. BELOW RIGHT: After meeting the Navy vet, Lurker Bill seems happier than normal.

Another DC Chapter Master Ping
The lost has been found.
HUGH?
Well...thanks...will mail it to the kids....
Maryland PING!
You guys are great...I didn’t realize they made them remove those signs in the semi-circle...what was that all about?
I owe you all a note.. I was on my way to DC for party/WR FReep..Friday early got message that in NC my best friend’s daughter was murdered in front of her children by her husband/their father. he then hung himself. Although I was Packed & planned to go to DC, I instead went to NC & participated & supported my friend & her family with the visitation,funeral etc & took pix for them at her request.
I missed you all very much, trust me..I never did get a ping to an AAR /pix.. was there one? or did I miss it?
will life ever be normal?
when Texas secedes will we all move to & go there & FReep something? our Republic seems to be going to hell lately. I am calling, emailing, shaking idiots where I can, as I know you all are Love & hugs to all & a very Merry Christmas!
Glad to see the LOST is FOUND! I feel like that myself sometimes...or am I always a bit lost?
It is nice to see the nice weather we had those weeks together.
Thanks for the nice compliment too!
Absolutely this is HUGH. We continued our Friday’s Support the Troops. Christmas Day we’ll be out there for Week 245, 245 consecutive Fridays.
Small lol. I guess that is a BIG smile. Thanks for the early AM BIG smile.
[Mr] T
Thanks for the ping.
I have a few boxes to get back to you next time your out at WR.
[Mr] T
Yep, new Garrison Commander. He is adhereing to the law - no protests on military bases. We even had to move our red banner. You can see in the above picture of Guns and BufordP that the right side is now attached to the PUBLIC traffic light. We are also using rebar to hold up the left side.
And thanks for the kudos.
[Mr] T
So sorry to hear about the loss. Tough situation this close to Christmas. As always, family and close friends come before any FReep.
RE the ping, you are on the Master List. If you get a lot of pings it could have been scrolled below the screen.
Take care and Merry Christmas.
The Trooprallys
Yep, sure was warm. Quite a difference from Kburi’s recent WR AAR. Good thing foe Lurker Bill’s heater. Unfortunately he will not be able to make this Friday’s Rally. With the rain forecast I’m not sure the heater could be set up.
FYI - Compliments concerning you come easy. :-))
[Mr] T
I had an uncle named Hugh. Although he was tall, he wasn’t huge.
Side note: The weekend of the 15th we had a cookout at WRAMC and VAFlagWaver, Pleadeal, and several other Freepers lent a hand.
This Aint Hell has some pics.
