Rain was falling on the Times Square military recruiting center today…
… on us and on a family that stopped to thank us.
This young woman’s brother was horribly injured in Iraq and is struggling to recover. “No one is paying attention to the wars any more. People are still dying in Iraq and Afghanistan but it isn’t in the news.”

Granny troops stand abreast of the Recruitment Center gangway today. Nice breeze, friendly clouds on a hot day. Retruthment is our way. We have revised numbers of fatalities to report.
Today we follow the path of our literature. Here is Edith, one of the roving Granny retruthment distributors.
Grannies in the lineup entreated this young man to at least read the facts before signing anything.
As he left the center, the man engaged with us about the facts. A Times Square security guard did too.
