Well, proportionally, VFP had a pretty good presence, but, alas, that was due to a pretty small turnout. But it was great to see lots of friends, including the rarely spotted Art and Nancy Brennan; the ever-present Margaret F, Bill P, Col. Ann, and Ellen B; our fearless president Barry L (who spoke beautifully) and his predecessor Patrick McC; tireless staffers Michael McP and Casey S; the distinguished Ray McG (who also spoke beautifully); and many others.
Our banner, I think I can say without unduly bragging, was the best-looking one there, and our folks carried it with panache.
A surprise hit was a stash of the red and black "End these wars now" signs from December 2010. They appeared out of nowhere, and made a good addition to the visuals.
