Subject: HANOI JANE/PEACE MOM CINDY PROTEST



All,



As most of you know, I'm a Rolling Thunder@ member. As some of you may know, there will be an anti-war protest on March 17th led by the subject named individuals starting at the VIETNAM WALL and ending at the Pentagon. Now, I'm hoping that the Pentagon can protect itself, but there have been threats of desecration of the Wall. I'm going for the counter-protest...I've had it to here (think up to my eyeballs) with the hate America first crowd. Nobody will lay a hand on that Wall. This is not a political thing for me but I am a Vietnam vet and I'VE HAD ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!! Please note the call to action below, it's from the president of Tennessee One. If anyone else wants to help, let me know...I'm goin'...that's a fact. I've blocked out Bulldog's phone number down below, but if anyone is interested in contacting him, just shoot me an email. Sorry if this doesn't meet the standards of our group's email...

Okay, here is the latest. The plan is to be in Washington DC by 8AM on 17 March, 2007 to stand between the Hate America First bunch (Jane Fonda, Cindy Sheehan and the American Socialist and Liberation Party) and the Vietnam Memorial. They will not deface our memorial like they did the capital steps a few weeks ago. We'll be there to show the patriot side of America.



Tennessee Chapter One of Rolling Thunder is working on bus transportation to Washington DC leaving Friday March 16, dropping Eagles at the Vietnam Memorial by 8AM on Saturday, 17 March, and returning to Nashville on the 18th. Grey lines has quoted $4200 round trip for a 47 passenger bus. The only additional charge is for a room for the two drivers to get about 8 hours sleep before the return trip. We are going with a bare bones approach. Sleeping bags, ice chests with sandwiches etc.



We are talking with local banks to explore setting up a system to accept donations from the public to help fund the trip. Bus riders would make up the difference. Approximate cost per person for transportation would be $100 or less. We may be able to find a few folks willing to underwrite a portion of the cost. We have about 10 days to pull the plan together and reserve the bus/buses. We are making calls to members, veterans and patriots to get commitments and deposits for the trip.



We think we should be able to get 470 vets from Tennessee. That is a 10 bus convoy. We may need to charter buses from several different locations to make it easy for everyone to board and get going.



If anyone has other useful information or alternate plan please get it out there so we can sort this out and make it happen. Anyone who wants to discuss this with me can call me at (XXX)XXX-XXXX after 5PM central any day of the week. This is a call for all Veterans and patriots of America. America can not afford to let those who would destroy our country stick another knife in our heart like they did a little over thirty years ago. It's time to stand up.
