HEAR YE! HEAR YE! A CALL TO ARMS!

Saturday, January 18, 2003 Washington DC, 0900 at the Brothers of Nam statue near The Wall


Uncle Sam Wants YOU is something most of us remember. Many of us answered the call. There are literally millions upon millions of living war veterans who selflessly defended freedom and America and our families and fellow countrymen.
Over thirty years ago, the defenders of a free world fought a new kind of war. It was a war without a front, a war without a demonstrable support for its heroic fighters, but with a ferocious enemy back home capturing the media, college campuses, the entertainment industry, many of our own elected representatives, and the attention of the leaders of a militarily soundly defeated North Vietnamese Army and its communist allies, to whom said enemy back home, the radical left, gave aid and abetment.
All of the veterans of that conflict remember the vitriolic welcome home, and the discrimination against them, and the name calling and vile shunning from much of the very people they fought so bravely for.
NEVER AGAIN!
United States Marine Corps combat veterans of the Vietnam War have initiated an offensive; a war, if you will, against the stance and arrogance of the leftist radical movement. These vile traitors, sympathetic to the enemies of this nation have again, after thirty years, risen their ugly heads, Phoenix-like, to aid and abet our enemies. As before, they are demonstrating, trying to present, with the help of the liberal media, a false impression to the citizens and politicians of America, and the world, of a popular opposition to the United States defending itself and waging war upon those bent upon its destruction.
This is YOUR finest hour. Uncle Sam NEEDS you. Your arms are your willingness to help show the world the radical left is not going to be given the sole position of presenting the only voice of the will and wishes of our people; a false and noisy minority is all they are and ever have been.
Your call is to plan to join up with these Marines, and other patriotic Americans, and proceed to Washington, DC to be a needed member of our Righteous Demonstration against that of the leftist anti-war protestors. Noted media representative of the right have been notified we will be there to present and voice what we believe is still the position of the vast majority of Americans.
Time is very short. You may have to make a sacrifice of your time, travel expense, and the comfort of your home in front of the television on which you will be seeing the left once again doing their thing. Please, PLEASE, do not allow them to do it unopposed. YOU are needed!
The leftist demonstration will begin with a gathering on the west side of the White House, and will proceed to the U.S. Navy Yards about four miles to the southeast. You should simply request information, or any questions you may have about anything back to the source of this letter having been e-mailed or sent to you.
pointmanherc@ameritech.net
This letter ... this PLEA for 'militia' members in a fight against those bent upon the destruction of our country and way of life ... is being sent to many, many places. The total distribution will be unknown to anyone.
Because of that, none of us could know the magnitude of participation.
It IS known, however, that the United States Marine Vietnam combat veteran who wrote this letter, will, if necessary, stand for his nation, our loved ones, our way of life, and THE TRUTH, along with a small band of his brothers, ALONE AGAIN, if need be,
in Washington DC, at 0900 at the Brothers of Nam statue near The Wall, January 18, 2003.

Semper Fidelis, Joel Charles Kernodle - pointmanherc@ameritech.net

And the members of MOVE-OUT! (Marines & Other Veterans Engaging Outrageous Un-American Traitors!)

The DC Chapter of Freerepublic.com has been around for more than 4 years. We have opposed leftists here at least 4 or 5 times before. We proudly had marines help us 29 Sept. 01 at the Navy Memorial.

I am asking that we coordinate and combine our efforts. The leaders of the Chapter are kristinn and angelwood. Please consider joining us. 'Pod

Please consider joining us. We proudly had Marines help us 29 Sept. 01 opposing the Leftists. We have opposed this filth 4 or 5 times since 9/11 in this city.

Combining our efforts will yield larger results than having two groups separate. Pls. consider joining us.

Not discouraging you from what you are doing. Thank you for your service to our country. 'Pod

I must second the notion of feeling proud, laughing and learning. As a Freeper for over a year now, the CANTEEN is a place for those of us to share experiences, advice, learn, and laugh. I have met some OUTSTANDING folks!!! Whether it be by land, sea, and or air, the Canteen gives us the PRIDE and support we need to defend our country. Many active, like myself "lurk" on a regular basis. Alot of vets, retiree's, reservists share their stories here. When time comes to be with those we have not seen in ages, the feeling of being on leave is tremendous. Let alone if from a small town, the remarks of "Thanks for wearing that uniform" just send chills up and down your spine. Take the time to visit the Canteen. You'll be glad you did.

"While I agree completely with this sentiment, the MOVEOUT crew will not have any weapons, not even placard sticks. We will initiate no violence."

That was an admonition for implementation when it's appropriate.

My thoughts and prayers are with you?

Thanks for the heads-up, AP! I checked out the lefty link and it looks like the usual suspects, with the usual plans. Same time, same place at the Civic Center? I wish we could get a few more people this time around. I bet that D.C. counter-rally is going to be massive. Sigh. But our little groups sure knows how to get the lefties worked up! Keep in touch:)

Well I just wanted to thank the Freeper's that got in touch with my bro, Joel (Pointman Herc) Kernodle and gave us the heads up on the ins and outs of protesting in DC. It looks like we've hooked up with ya'll officially now for the January 18th gig. We are spending every free minute sending out emails to Marine Corps Forums, websites, organizations, all the Military Motorcycle clubs, Rolling Thunder, and many more. At this point I can't say if we can gather 100, 1000 or 10,000. All I know is that I'm ready and so is alot o other Combat Marine Vietnam Vets we know. Just hope they all show. We're pumped !! This sh!t might happen on our watch, but it ain't gonna happen without us being there to have our say !! Of course, we were saddened to hear "No Weapons" allowed....Ya'll want to take the fun out of this event !! OK OK...no weapons except our attitudes !! But if one o them scumbags lays a hand on my American Flag, then I'm gonna need "BAIL MONEY" !!!! SEMPER FIDELIS, DANE BROWN

Way cool. I discussed this w/ Kristinn at Moran's Saturday (abut 2 blocks from Ground Zero in NYC).

We are going to do a planning meeting 1/11 and we will assemble for the event in front of the Marine Barracks (So I have been told.). I will keep you spun up on developments.

Well D-Day in DC is in a couple o days !! Remember all Veterans, Marines, etc...be at the "Brothers of Nam" Statue at 0900 Saturday. Then head straight to "Constitution Gardens" which is a very short distance away over behind the "Wall" area.

Please check out our M.O.V.E. O.U.T. site. I think this won't be our only gathering for sure !!!
