Fiery Mother of a multi-tour soldier, who had Code Pinko Media Benjiman hiding from her one Walter Reed FReep, needs your help. Bev Perlson, founder of Band of Mothers, has spent numerous Tuesday thru Thursday on Capitol hill protesting Nancy Pelosi's anti-troop ideology.
She needs your help this coming week.
Also, on Thursday, Sept. 11, the 7th Anniversary of 9/11, there will be several elected officials holding a press conference in support of our brave troops. I'll ping the D.C. Chapter for specific times when I get them.
Last time Bev was in D.C., Code Pink surrounded her and her supports and dropped lighted matches on her back pack. Lets out number Code Pink this week.
Bev recently emailed the below to me.

The Band of Mothers, along with members of The Gathering of Eagles and The Free Republic, will gather on the corner of the Cannon Bldg in Washington, DC (where Nancy Pelosi supposedly works 3 days per week when not on her 5 week vacation) on September 9th, 10th and 11th.
We will gather, once again, outside the Cannon Bldg in DC to celebrate our Soldier's victories and to memorialize the Heroes we have lost in this War and all the Americans murdered on 9/11.
The Cannon Bldg is located on the corner of New Jersey & Independence Avenue, in Washington, DC. We will be there from 9am to 5pm, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, September 9th, 10th and 11th.
Please join us! Our Soldiers need to know they are loved and revered and that Americans appreciate their service and sacrifice.
Our permit is in place and we hope to fill that corner with grateful Americans. Congressman, Senators and All who have unwaveringly supported our troops, please be sure to come by the Cannon Bldg. Corner on September 11th at 1:00 and take part in a photo thanking our troops. We will blast this all over the internet! It is time our Soldiers "See" our support! Thank You and please spread the word!
To those Congressman and Senators who stood by our Troops and never wavered in voting to fund them, The Band of Mothers, The Gathering of Eagles and Free Republic would like to have the opportunity to personally thank each and everyone of you. We hope you come out to the Cannon Bldg Corner September 9th, 10th or 11th so we can give you our "Thanks!" Thanks for sticking up for our Soldiers and our Country!
See you in September!
Proud Mother of a Son Who Served 4 Deployments with the 82nd Airborne and who is a Bronze Star Recipient.

Let us hope this rally goes well and our side can get some facts out without anyone being harmed. It is great to hear that a congressmen of Boehner’s stature will be speaking at the event.
Great news update from Trooprally
Congressman BOEHNER and others will be speaking, STARTING AT 1PM, Thursday.
Trooprally, please give them my full heart’s thanks. Living on the razor’s edge is made easier knowing there were those who would keep the ammo coming when there were those who would steal it.
Message received and consider delivered.
Thanks for your Marine ping.
[Mr] T
