Gathering of Eagles

1000 Hours, March 17, 2007 Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall Washington, D.C. |

The anti-war/anti-America groups are planning a "march to the Pentagon" on March 17, 2007... this group has intentions that defenders of freedom cannot overlook or allow to occur... there must be a challenge.
Here's a portion from the "anti-war" web site March 17 -- March on Pentagon!: Time to Turn Up the Heat! that causes considerable concern: "The biggest single group of new volunteers and activists are soldiers and marines who have returned from Iraq. Their family members and other veterans are also organizing to March on the Pentagon. The opening rally will assemble at the Vietnam Memorial (Constitution Gardens) at noon."
The anti-war/anti-America group cannot be allowed to use the Viet Nam Memorial Wall as a back-drop to their anti-America venom and stain the hallowed ground that virtually cries out with blood at the thought of this proposed desecration ... it must not happen.
Many are encouraging a "Gathering of Eagles" (symbolic of our freedom) at the Viet Nam Memorial Wall on March 17, 2007, as a signal that a segment of America does not agree with the "anti-war/anti-America" rally on the same day. As noted above, the anti-war/anti-America crowd is publishing intention to use the Viet Nam Memorial as a backdrop to their rally................this cannot happen...............it cannot go unchallenged.
Based on the input received, here is what is suggested as a means to identify those of us attending/visiting the Viet Nam Memorial wall and other Memorials on March 17, 2007 opposing the anti-war distortions.
We want to send a different message than the "anti-war/anti-America" surrender crowd, so we should be clearly set apart from them.
Wear a Red Armband on the right arm (Red often symbolizes/represents courage, revolution, hardiness, blood, and/or valor) .
On the armband each person should print something, e.g. WWII, Korea, Nam, Iraq, spouse, widow, POW, Vet, Legion, patriot, citizen, etc., or other respectful phrase one wants to help us identify one another.
We need to remember all American's are invited to support our effort which is intended as a defender of hallowed ground and intended as a non-violent competition between those that would sell out America and those of us who support freedom and keeping the fight with the enemy on distant shores.
Many of us will be wearing favorite caps, shirts, jackets, jungle fatigues, desert dress, medals, etc. to include the Red Armband............it will be a grand reunion, a time of new friendships, which will also, God willing, rekindle a new light of American patriotism which would filter down the mall toward the Capitol of the United States.......maybe even the main stream media (MSM)
........obviously more detail is needed which will come as we draw nearer.
We know some of the, who, what, when, why, where, …….it's up to each of us to supply the "how".
More details to follow....................

Free Republic to get Permit for counter Demonstration

Feb. 05, 07
Kristinn Taylor the President of the DC Chapter of Free Republic kristinn@bellatlantic.net will be getting a permit for a counter protest on March 17th, 07 in Washington DC...They will set up along the route of the Anti-War Protestors, and we from the "Gathering of Eagles" will be under their permit umbrella. When we are satisfied the Wall is secure and the Park Police have everything under control we can march to where the counter protest will take place to show our support of our troops in the field.
I have also talked to Jeff White, PA, State Council, Vietnam Veterans of America, who has sent out 1500 e-mails. And he has also notified the Gold Star Mothers, and Modern Day Veterans those who have served after 1990.
This morning I also talked to Artie Muller - National Executive Director - of Rolling Thunder, he wants all the information on the "Gathering of Eagles". He has not committed yet, but we can hope.
America must know that there are those of us who know what Anti war protests do to the moral of the troops and who better to let them know than the Vietnam Veterans? We must let our Troops know America is not abandoning another generation of soldiers. These Protesters say they "Support the Troops" how can they possibly believe what they are doing is any way support....What they are doing in reality is what they did to us almost 40 years ago...they are giving our enemies aid and comfort and hope that all they have to do is wait us out...great Americans, Like Jane Fonda. These people are not anti-war they are anti AMERICA!
Anyone who is setting up a convoy or trying to get a bus send me your e-mail and I can put the word out in my "Desk of Viper"
Please forward this mail to all Veterans of all wars to all Veteran organizations to all right thinking Americans forward it on and on and on.
If you are coming from the west
We have a few convoys of vets headed there from the west starting on March 1st. The intention is to pickup more along the way, get there, link arms and not let any of that trash get near our Hallowed Ground!
