Great report, Red and a great message from Don Dinsmore. Thanks to you both.

If you would like to help with the civilian lawyer’s legal fees for the
Haditha Marines you can do so by going to these sites.

God bless each of these warriors. I firmly believe justice (as can happen now) will see that each of these men walk free.

Simply shameful what they've been put through. Their skills and services should still be in this fight.

Reminds one of the recent fiasco in the Duke case.

Every donation counts, every dollar counts

and thou shalt be blessed; because they have not wherewith to recompense thee: for thou shalt be recompensed in the resurrection of the just.

Thanks for the ping RR - God Bless and God Save these Heros!

It was hubby's and my pleasure to be there.

NordP

P.S. Hubby's the webmaster for his friend in AZ, who welcomed him when he went to AZ to volunteer as a Minuteman's website. There are some great "INDEPENDENCE DAY" (say that instead of 4th of July) quotes on the home page: Hubby's friend's site

Job well done to both Don Dinsmore and RedRover! Don just put this ride together in a flash because he believed in raising money and awareness for the accused Marines. And now was the right time. RedRover, you followed the trip, kept updating the thread with maps, photos, and emails from Don.

I’m not sure how all the press made it there, except Red, you probably had a hand in that, as well. And there were people making donations.

Job well done to all the people who made it their PRIORITY to follow this cause!

How about giving a nickel for every mile I rode? Write out a check for $71.10 and put it in the mail today. Make this a priority!

Hey wait a minute - unless someone's sent a Huey to pick up Don and his bike, he's got 1422 miles still to ride - Leave No Motorcycle Riding Dad With Monkey Butt Behind!

(I'm constantly having to remind my own son of this very same thing ;~))

3 checks for 142.20 going out in tomorrow's mail.

God Bless the Dinsmores and the Marines of 3/l Kilo - Thanks for displaying the Honor, Sacrifice, and Sense of Duty that gives our Independence Day such Sincerity of Meaning.

OMG 4woodenboats I haven’t heard “monkey butt” in a while! They actually sell “Monkey Butt” powder at one of our favorite spots to gas up for trips to Florida.

Red - as always a superb job covering this for those of us unable to physically attend (we were all there in spirit).

Thank you Don and thank you 3/1 Marines!

Thanks!

I was concerned that this thread is and should be all about Don and Co. and maybe I shouldn't have shared that site with you; but the Marine theme is all over that site, too. And, as you noticed, there are links to other great sites as well.

Hubby's friend is another proud Dad of a Marine!

God Bless them All!

You are living ALOHA!

I just learned what this meant so I will pass it on to you because it would be square if Red did this for you.
