On a lighter note (that is, if you're able to ignore the whole, these are the young men and women who haven't been killed in The War aspect of it all) last week was Fleet Week.
I have a friend who's since moved to D.C. who said that her favourite time of year in The City was Fleet Week. When I saw the sailors last week I was sad that she missed it.
Though the white is not as flattering to some as it is to others it is definitely an amazing thing to see in NYC. The sailors really stand out. Especially in Times Square. As garish as the area is getting the cool simplicity and unmarred elegance of the uniforms are quite a sight.
And then, there's the awesome and garring sight of sailors their white uniforms still pristine in the subway.
I hope that you sailors had a great time in our city. Thank you and come again!
