If you (or anyone else) can get the names that appear on the crosses at the Sheehan demonstration site, then find the parents and contact them. If at least 20 such pairs of parents send me the following letter, plus $1 (Perry Mason time, so I am officially their attorney), I will act as instructed.
Letter to John Armor. Esq.:
We understand that the name of our son [NAME] is being used by Cindy Sheehan and others as part of an anti-war demonstration in Crawford, Texas. We deny any right of Ms. Sheehan to use the name of our son, and his death in Iraq, for any such purpose.
Therefore, we authorize John Armor, Esq., as our attorney in this matter, and authorize him to go to the site of this demonstration, go onto public property like any other citizen, and either remove the cross bearing the name of our son, or to obliterate his name on that cross, so his name is not associated in any way with that demonstration.
Enclosed is $1 to confirm that Mr. Armor is our legal representative in this matter, with full authority to speak and act in our behalf to protect the good name of our son, and of the nation for which we fought.
Signed, [PARENT] [PARENT]
Once I get at least 20 such letters in hand, I will go to Crawford to carry out those instructions. I will ask some of the larger and better-trained counter demonstrators to accompany me on this effort, as it is logical to expect that the Sheehan people will attempt violence to prevent me from carrying out these instructions.
I will also undertake this project on behalf of FreeRepublic, as well.
Eagles up.

However, by the time we got this done and tried to locate parents or family for each of these heroes, Ms Sneehan and her great entourage of the unwashed, will have moved on.
They plan to pull out of Crawford by the 31st at the latest.
Probably--(I'm guessing here), they will next camp out in the DC area, if their plan is to "be near the president". They will then be under the watchful eye of the magnificiient DC Chapter of FreeRepublic!!
I salute you, Sir! An outstanding effort.
Freepmail me if you go. I'm 60 miles from Crawford (near Fort Hood) and can round up recruits. God bless you.
