Trial Room at McNair

[L Verge]

One word about trying to get on Ft. McNair - it's high security for a very good reason. It's within a mile of the Capitol and the Library of Congress, and I've been told that it's a primary fall-back site if Congress has to be evacuated. Helicopters can get them out of the city in no time.

It is also home to the National Defense University which trains not only our high brass, but also that of a variety of foreign nations.

When I could walk well, I attended monthly meetings there. All cars were stopped and searched from engine to trunk to everything in between and mirrors and detectors were scanned under the car.
