The Eagles are looking for a few good men and women to help out with the efforts on March 17 to protect the Vietnam Veterans War Memorial targeted by anti-war zealots from ANSWER:

Gathering of Eagles is looking for a few “Take Charge” NCOs in each state. Contact people in your State Info section or advertise at the American Legion, VFW and VVA Posts in your area to generate interest in taking a bus to DC for the Gathering of Eagles. There are over two weeks to put this together, and getting a bus together is an excellent way to share expenses or make the trip to DC affordable for the troops.

Here are the facts:

The bus must arrive in DC between 0730 and 0930 on March 17th, departing around between 1600 and 1800. The U.S. Park Police will be setting the drop-off and pick-up locations, and may designate a bus parking area. Gathering of Eagles has designated a Point of Contact for bus companies to obtain specific routing instructions.

Eagles Up!

I am a member of the South Jersey Viet Nam Vets Association [ Viet Nam 101st Airborne, 1968]. I have appropriated a bus on which 40 of our members will be attending the event. We will be in DC by 0900 – 0930 on 3/17/07. No worries about the Memorial. Nam Knights and Rolling Thunder will be there in numbers to discourage any misuse of the Memorial.
