The rally featured over 1,000 people at the park near the Verazzano Bridge and also near Fort Hamilton, Headquarters of the US Army corps of Engineers and still housing several units of the national guard.

The rally was organized by Congressman Vito Fossela(R). Also there were the state assemblyman Mathew Mirones, State Senator Marty Golden and City Councilman James Oddo. Also there where Dim's Vincent Gentile the new councilman of the area who will be replaced in November by a Republican (if I have anything to do with it) and State assemblyman Joseph Abate the Dim from Bensonhurst.

Well over 1,000 people attended. I estimate around 1,500. Not bad for Brooklyn considering the fact it was not that well publicized except on WABC radio.

Clemenza and I did our duty and provided the FreeRepublic precense. Nitro was supposed to be at the rally as well as several others who may have appeared without announcing themselves.
