First-person account of the GOE planning session and rally by Del Vecchio, who worked with Larry Bailey to help plan the event.
Since a link is required and this came by email, I've included a link to Del's excellent educational booklet, Whitewash / Blackwash: Myths of the Vietnam War.

Hurrah, hurrah. I hope Del Vecchio is viewing this forum also. He gives a very fine account.
This infuriates me no end:
Hmm, I decided to try something, so I ran after them found them and said to the lady interviewer "Sind Sie Deutsch?" She, surprised, said yes. So I said "Moechten Sie mit einander altem Soldat sprechen?" (Would you like to speak with another old soldier?) I figured, how could she say no, how often would she ever get a chance to interview an American vet who would speak German to her? Theyd love that in Germany.
But she said that they d just talked to one of us, and I said, yeah, but I am from a different point of view. She then quickly said "Oh, we have all the interviews we need, I must hurry now", and she turned and walked away fast.
So freakin' typical.

To hear the media, including fox in their "passing through" update stories, it was only the weather that decreased turnout. The impression with "met with counter protesters" was not couched with "an equal ammount of protests"
NOR did they compare the post protest behavior. I bet the proamerica crowd was much cleaner.

When he came back I asked him how they came to him rather than anyone else, and he mentioned they had interviewed him at other protests and knew him.His name wouldn't by chance be "Greg Packer," would it??
