Gathering of Eagles ^ | March 15th, 2007 | Gathering of Eagles

Come Welcome the Move America Forward Caravan in D.C. Tonight.

Gathering of Eagles partner Move America Forward has been leading a cross-country caravan of Gold and Blue Star families, veterans and other patriotic Americans that arrives tonight in Washington, D.C. after a week long trek that began in San Francisco last Thursday.

Local and early arriving Eagles are encouraged to greet the caravan when it arrives at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill, 400 New Jersey Avenue, NW.

Please plan to greet them between 5:30 p.m. and 7 p.m. They’re scheduled to depart from Richmond, Va., at 3 p.m. and head up I-95 to D.C. That’s a bad stretch of road for afternoon commuters so that’s why the arrival time is a bit sketchy.

The Move America Forward caravan has collected over TEN THOUSAND American flags from proud patriots across the country to send to units in Iraq and Afghanistan as a message of support for our troops and their mission fighting the war on terror.

Move America Forward
THURSDAY, MARCH 15TH

6:00 PM :: Arrive in Washington, D.C. - Media & supporters can welcome the caravan into Washington, D.C. as it arrives at the Hyatt Regency Washington On Capitol Hill hotel. The caravan participants will overnight at this location: Hyatt Regency Washington On Capitol Hill 400 New Jersey, NW Washington D.C. 20001

I'll be there with another marine and an Air Force vet. It's almost bedtime at 6:50 PM, 1 AM will be here sooner than I'd like it to.

Just keep the faith. The important thing concerning our troops is they know the deal. They have been educated as to how the far left and L/MSM organizations manipulate things to meet their agendas.
But they also know they have a strong CIC who highly respects what they are commisioned to do. And one who would not deliberatly let them down.

I find it curious that there is no post 15, and no reason for the deletion.

Post 15 was a large image and may have been a huge frustration for dial-ups.

Thanks for the info. Until a year and a half ago, I only had dialup, so I can understand. Broadband is good.

Thank You DollyCali!
You know by now that we carried the day! The playing of Taps at The Wall at 1200 HRS and the solemn moment which we spent honoring those who fell for the continuing of our liberty far outshined Cindi Sheehan and her spouting of Anti-American Hate. The 5000 plus of us not only trumped The Neocom Hoards, but put them on notice that they will no longer be able to continue the destruction of our country unencumbered. I hope that you were one whom I was fortunate enough to speak with yesterday. We got home at 1935 and I am still pumped up. God Bless you. I look forward to speaking with you again soon. Good night.

Thank you GoldwaterChick,

The D.C. Metro Police and The U.S. Park Service Police had conducted their own investigation of The Neocom threats to desecrate The Vietnam Memorial and found it to be credible. The result was that metal detectors, pat downs, emptying of pockets and visible security were present to protect our shrine of freedom.

We outnumbered the Neocoms and carried the day. No longer will these haters of America go forward without resistance, ultimate victory will be ours.

Thank you for your well wishes. It meant more than you would know to my wife and I.
