[Scan-DC] T-birds up in Wash, DC area

[jay dehm]

It's a rather funny story. I was sitting in the basement trying to
grab some milcom's and all of a sudden I hear a loud roar booming over
my house. I ran outside and caught a visual with them. They ended up
circling low altitude (maybe 1000-1500ft) over my house in formation
approx. 6 times. I didn't even have to leave my house. Although I'm
sure going down to Arlington would have been better but... what can ya
do.. I'm located in Bethesda, MD within minutes of the DC line. The
flew over from the North and headed South towards Arlington I presume.
They then circled around and did the same thing again apx. 6-7 times
until they headed back NE to Norfolk.
