OUT OF CONTEXT: Gen. Washington picking up rations for the troops

With his gray ponytail, distinguished profile and military bearing, local resident Carl Closs brings General George Washington to life in his frequent appearances at school and community events. He looks utterly right and absolutely in character in his tricorn hat and colonial uniform.
So it was disconcerting to spot the Kennett Square man yesterday doing his grocery shopping at the Giant, wearing a loose summer shirt, and then loading his bags into his car. Not an aide-de-camp in sight to assist the General. You just can't get good help these days!
