Subject: IVAW/Eagles Muster, March 14/15, Washington, DC UPDATE
Friends,
A large number of Eagles are spreading wings, stirring the air in anticipation of swooping into Washington, DC next month (just 17 days) in support of our nation, our troops, and honoring our fallen and all families. We are pleased by encouragement from Rolling Thunder.
As you know we have two goals:
1. To counter and challenge IVAW Winter Soldier II (WSII) Testimony on March 14 by demanding "truth". The theory of WSII is that our warriors and government policy is involved with or encouraging atrocities and other criminal activity...to prove such allegation, WSII must identify, time, date, place, witnesses, leadership, associated with any criminal activity and do so "under oath" to be considered worthy of investigation.
2. Our second goal is to participate in a peaceful march in Washington that reflects a view of appreciation, uplifting, pride in America, our troops and families... not degrade, demean or denigrate our beloved nation, warriors and families. This will be a positive event with flags, banners, patriotic music, fellowship, and oriented for the entire family of patriots.
We have our official permits, have made arrangements for toilet facilities, working on medical support, security will be well in hand by National Park Service, march location is easy to find (see attached map)........all details are at www.eaglesup.us under Eagles Muster on the left of the home page.....please visit.
Many of you have asked how you can help financially.......well now is the time. Some of the Eagles Up staff are currently carrying most of the financial load in order to meet the needs of our fellow participants safety and comfort as well as requirements of the District of Columbia regulations that must be satisfied.
There are two options to donate. Go to www.eaglesup.us and look on the right side of the home page if you prefer to use a credit card. If you prefer to send a check or money order make payable to Eagles Up Inc. and mail to
Eagles Up Inc.
PO Box 202
Mequon, WI 53092.
If you need more information, click "contact" at the top right of www.eaglesup.us home page.
It should be noted that all funds are used strictly for event needs, none for personal use of Eagles Up staff. All funds are carefully recorded and available for public review as required. We are not able to offer tax deductible status at this time, so your donation will simply be a gift of thanksgiving in support of our mission.
We are beginning to turn the negative atmosphere of the "hate America" crowd toward a positive and well intentioned display of support for "America,our troops, families and fallen" ....it's the right thing to do.
Our efforts depend on a team approach...a winning reflection of "boots on the ground" at the backs of our warriors and families as they sacrifice so much for us.
God bless you............
Harry Riley, COL, USA, Ret

PING!
FRiends, the costs associated with mounting an event such as this are increasing daily.
EaglesUP has taken the first step and fully funded the sanitary facilties the Park Service requires. This was a $3000.00 outlay.
In addition to sanitary, we are also required to provide a fixed first aid station, manned by proffessional EMT's for the duration of the event.
Anything you can spare will be greatly appreciated.
Please go to the EaglesUP website and donate whatever you can spare.
From Col harry Riley
Our mission success is based on our theory of "teamwork" and support..........
we can't accomplish our mission without many of us stepping forth and giving of our time, talent, and resources.
We also have committed ourselves to financial obligations....many have been encouraging the actions we are taking. Lift up America, support our troops, and protect and honor our fallen and our families....that's what we'll be doing March 14 and 15 in Washington, DC.
Several have sent contributions and we ask others to consider helping meet our commitments. Mail a check payable to Eagles Up, Inc. PO Box 202, Mequon, WI 53092 or go to www.eaglesup.us and make a contribution via credit card.
Thanks........looking forward to sending a strong message to America March 14/15 as thousands of "boots on the ground" make their mark.
