Warrior Walk 2019

Once again,  LARC showed out in force to provide radio support to a worthy cause. This time it was the Lakeland Warrior Walk. Here are some photos of the event.

Words are not needed!

Hams are a fun group of guys, or an incorrigible lot, take your pick

To the right, and blending into the crowd, is our fearless net control operator.

We were pleased to have had Darrell Davis join us on this march.

Steve, hand on the button, ready to respond.

Victor's dream come true." I always wanted an adult Tonka Toy when I grew up."

Bill, ever vigilant on station

Last but not least, Next to Glenn Smith we have his very patriotic pouch. Patriotism runs in this family.

A Little Humor Never Hurts

Lee, N4HES's kids got this sign for his birthday last week, and he wanted to share this will the group. If you must have one of these for your very own, they are available on Amazon. 

I am not so sure I want to take this message literally. My experience has been that teleham is right up there with telephone and telegraph. 

Thank you for sharing Lee.
