Reminds me of my favorite billboard ever! "Support Our Troops... At Home and Abroad" http://www.nycpba.org/tadam/03/tadam-030428-billboard.html | While the U.S. military is being asked to act more like police officers, | collaring bank robbers and otherwise keeping the peace in Baghdad and | other Iraqi locales, we police officers have to think and act more like | the military as we continue to fight the war against terrorism. The bond | between wearers of the uniform both military and police has never been | stronger. This is why we launched this outdoor display advertising | campaign. And remember, you can't spell Troops without OOPS!
