Oath Keepers Establishing Rotating Honor Guard to Ensure WWII Veterans’ Access to Their Memorial

Time to Back Up World War II Vets as They Continue to Storm ‘Obama Beach’

First Honor Guard Shift:

Wed., October 16 to Sunday, October 20

Every Day, Dawn till Dusk (you pick the day(s) you can serve)

World War II Memorial, Washington D.C. (and other D.C. area war memorials, if we have enough volunteers)

To Volunteer, RSVP by posting a comment to this article, giving us at least your first name, and telling us what day(s) and times you can be there, at the WWII memorial. See below for more details.

In yet another intolerable act, the Obama Administration has ordered the barricades back up at the World War II memorial, even after angry veterans, Oath Keepers, and dedicated citizens tore down the barricades at the World War II memorial on Sunday, and dumped them at the White House gates.

snip

Therefore, starting Wednesday, October 16, Oath Keepers is establishing a rotating “Honor Guard” of volunteer veterans and concerned Americans at the WWII Memorial, to ensure that WWII vets can get in to pay their respects to their fallen brothers in arms. They risked all, in combat, to stop arbitrary, oppressive governments over there. We need to step up and keep them from being victimized by arbitrary, oppressive government here. Let’s get it done!

It’s a damn shame that the “Greatest Generation” has to stand up for the American “idiocracy” after giving so much already.

I’m ashamed of the majority of my generation and all that followed, sad day for America.

Are ‘Oath Keepers’ the group that came out of ‘Promise Keepers’?

Does anyone wonder how all of those closed signs magically appeared the very day of the shutdown? I hear that there is a huge paper trail leading to the White House making plans for a wanted shutdown to blame the Republicans

I keep hearing the song “Hell Broke Luce” by Tom Waits playing in the background. It would make a great theme song for times such as these. God bless America! God bless our Oath Keepers and all those who protect and defend the Constitution of the United States!

My only complaint is that last time the protestors laid them down in front of the Spite House.

I think simply leaning them against the fence, like hundreds of wide steel ladders, would better convey a certain MESSAGE.

Best done by placing them in a neat row in front of the fence and then on a signal have a minder at each one stand them up en masse...

Promise keepers is a christian men’s ministry group. Oathkeepers is a group of former and current military and law enforcement who promise to keep their oath to the constitution rather than to elected “leaders.”

Thanks for posting the links describing the Honor Flights. I went through a box of Kleenex watching. I'm sending these links out, via email.

God bless our Greatest Generation...and protect them and this great nation from any evil that comes up against. In Jesus' name.

Seventeen shutdowns since 1976, but no president ever closed outdoor national monuments. He’s not one of us. He’s a muslim.

It may come to that.

Quicker and safer to lean 'em against the fence and walk away.

I don't think the Praetorian guard will shoot us in the backs as we walk away.

Not just yet anyway.

Obama is just doing what all Emperors do. Wall off his palace grounds. First the streets. Then the living quarters. Followed by the nearby memorials. Fairly soon DC will be known as the forbidden city.

Both are worthy organizations... Thanks for sharing.
