    A few of us are going to man an overpass to pay our respects to an American hero, SCPO Shannon Kent, who was killed by a suicide bomber in Syria and whose body is being transported to Arlington Cemetery tomorrow.

    We will be on Rt 424 in Davidsonville at the overpass over Rt 50 westbound around 11am and expect the procession to pass by around noon. There is a Park n Ride lot right on the south side of Rt 424 for convenient parking.


    H/t to joppaj for the heads up.

    Yes.... Acres of empty commuter parking spaces on a Saturday right there where Route 424 crosses over Route 50.

    Calling on any and all Patriot Picket regulars to stand for SCPO Shannon Kent tomorrow starting at 11:00am.

    We will be bringing our collection of American and Maryland flags on our 10-foot PP parade flag poles to honor this hero.

    Afterwards, Stoveman and I will also conduct a private briefing for all Patriot Picket regulars in advance of Monday’s crucial Gun Bill Day activities.

    Join us as we fly our flags of freedom, for some gave all!

    Good call on a location. I'll try to get down there if I can. I think the motorcade leaves Andrews at 11 so I might have time to get done what I need to. Thanks for picking a location.

    To be precise, the Shannon Kent motorcade leaves Dover around 11am, crossing through Queen Anne’s County on the Eastern Shore around 11:30am and passing Davidsonville where we will have an MDS/PP Meet up at the 424 overpass.

    The procession will then continue to Arlington National Cemetary.

    Here is the other thread for the procession: https://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=232767&highlight=Shannon+Kent

    To find us....look for the MDshooters flag and our Patriot Picket banner, along with quite a few American Flags.

    This is a Day of Honor for the Fallen. Join us to fly our flags up high!

    I won't make it today, have to be in DC at 1300. I'm going to try to make it over to Arlington to be there as Senior Chief arrives.

    I just heard MSP on the scanner say they just crossed into Queen Anne County on MD 213. Just a few minutes from Rt. 301 near Centreville.

    Just giving a heads up since I can't be there in person.
