Donations can be made here.
From the desk of ViperAsh50#116:
We want to send a different message than the "anti-war/anti-America" surrender crowd, so we should be clearly set apart from them.
Wear a Red Armband on the right arm (Red often symbolizes/represents courage, revolution, hardiness, blood, and/or valor).
On the armband each person should print something, e.g. WWII, Korea, Nam, Iraq, spouse, widow, POW, Vet, Legion, patriot, citizen, etc., or other respectful phrase one wants to help us identify one another.
Post the related threads on your state boards to generate interest in attending.
Make up a pdf flyer and email it to every conservative blog, website, veterans organization and Republican Party club you can find.
( I remember that outstanding flyer Wayne! Care to design one for this rally? )
If any of you are going to CPAC, please mention this to the convention. It could help us with recruiting people to come to the counter protest, and the attendees could spread the word back home.

The purpose of this thread will be to pool our resources and ideas to counter the attempted take-over of our nation’s capital and foreign policy.
I created a "RESOURCE LINK" ping list from those commenting on Thunder90’s thread "Counter ANSWER march on the Pentagon on March 17th" and the usual suspects from the greater DC area.
If you wish to be added to or removed from this ping list please FReepmail me.
