I live less than 25 miles from the Pentagon, and was rather fortunate in that none of my friends who used to go to the Pentagon regularly were still working for government contractors. DC, however, is still in lockdown; there are armed forces everywhere. They are not getting in anyone's face or anything like that; the reports are that they are quite friendly and talkative, but they're still out there with guns and such. One of my friends is a Marine... he's been ordered to call in before 10am every day for orders when and if his unit is activated, which seems only to be a matter of time. My sister is stationed in Okinawa, and her unit has been ordered to stay on base, though due to her location I don't think that she'll be involved, and if she is, her MO is logistical. So far, though, we're all ok over here.
