Thursday, May 28, 2009 – sometime around noon…I was on an assignment with Off Duty editor Jason Watkins in front of the Lincoln Memorial. Quite a few helicopters had already passed by, but the noise from this one was a lot different. What the heck was an Osprey doing flying over the Mall? And why didn’t anyone turn and look at it?
Last Saturday I was outside near the Marine Corps Memorial when I heard an airplane noise that was far different than the normal passenger jets in the area. A B-52 passed overhead, not in the normal Potomac River flight path…am I going loopy?
I DO!
