Guest guest Posted February 10, 2000 Report Share Posted February 10, 2000 Just a thought, an evil one at that. Sec of Defense Cohen and his wife is hosting an event for the Armed forces, there is a number at the bottom to get " FREE " tickets. We should all call and order tickets, and NOT show up. Tom Brokaw is one of the " Masters of Ceremony. Maybe he would get the hint that he is not liked at all! >From: dlnews_sender@... >Reply-DODNEWS-L-request@... >DODNEWS-L@... >Subject: SECRETARY OF DEFENSE AND MRS.
