Veterans from every branch of the military have a message for our government. The message will be delivered in person at 9 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 13, in Washington, D.C. and at war memorials all across the nation.
The Million Vet March on the Memorials is a grassroots movement started by five military brats, a term used to describe children of military members, to honor the nation's veterans.

Looks like they had him well contained, yanking his personal property away from him in the process...
I hope the asshats gave him a reciept for the property they took from him.../sarc
I don’t have the story...but might be worth looking into ..I suspect we’ll find it out there soon.
I was all over the net following this today...I still missed a lot of these amazing photos you have posted. Many thanks.
Sadly, there are many here who wish to crawl into that honor, while cheering the Sequester, which undermines the very military they say they honor.
They use our veteran's honor about storming a barricade, yet they cheer on the de-funding of the military and say nothing about our exploding entitlement spending.

And if you don't like that report, use Google. There are 10,000 others. The fact is, the US military is about 17% of the budget, yet is forced to "pay for" 50% of the Sequester cuts.
Yet, the Entitlement crowd cheers, because they have not been cut one dime from Sequestration.
There is not one segment of the US population that has given more since September 11th, 2001, than the US military. Yet, the military has endured 3 massive budget cuts under Obama that were supposed to be over 10 years: $330 Billion in 2009, $487 Billion in 2011, and over $650 Billion in 2013 (Sequestration). Those cuts have now overlapped one another, and the military that so-called Americans still cheer is reeling.
There are no Republican or Conservative voices expressing outrage over this mess. All we hear is cut, cut, cut - but Obama will never cut Food Stamps, TANF, or Medicaid.
And where are our "friends?"
No where to be found.
After giving so much to this nation, the Republicans are the ones who want to "bake in" the Sequester.
Gee, thanks. Thanks a lot.
Government Shutdown Talks Move To Spending Levels As Mitch McConnell Holds The Line
I got these tonight which probably explains it....generally it’s after the event and people get home they send in their photos. I had to work today or I’d been looking like you did..lol...
Are those women in designer LEO outfits?
Are the fed or DC?
I don’t know...
That one speaks volumes!
She’s the best.
God bless Sarah Palin.
Those tough guys are certainly mistreating the flag.
Yes it does...if Obama thinks he’s got the military on his side he better re-think again and again cause he’s still not getting it Onyx. HE did all the wrong things when he opted to take on our Vets.......he crossed their RED LINE!
The jackass wouldn’t treat his OWS stooges this way.
Hero bump!
