They’d be wearing different colors, different styles, and should blend
right in with the rest of the crowd, since it was cold where they were

probably is. We’ve prepared as best as we can, but the real work still
comes down to each of us in the moment. Be smart. Be careful. Rely on
each other. And with any luck, we’ll be celebrating a victory tonight!”
