How about a microphone, speakers? Way to communicate with people?
Do we need "ushers", people to direct, guide, give out information?
Anyone have a set of radios available for organizers to use?
How would "VIP's", SwiftVets, etc. get there?

Color is nice but we're working with too many unknowns.
We have to focus on getting people there hopefully WITH CLOTHES ON and it's such short notice a coordinated effort might be difficult for all.
again, ANYONE WITH A BLOG THAT WE CAN USE FOR GENERAL INFO?

 Thanks for clarifying - some of us former officer types are easily confused. Always needed a good NCO around to keep my a** out of the grass!

**All Times in EST***
***All events are free
***If tickets are needed, that information will be announced on your local affiliate station
Date: Saturday, October 30, 2004
Time: 3:00pm-4:15pm
Duration: 75 minutes |
Ahhhh, I can hit this one, no ticket required and I have to run to the north end of the county in AM, can hit this on the way south. Might not have a ride to get away, but to heck with it, it is Saturday and I can find a bus. Darn it, if you guys don't have something done on a press release, I'll take Chief's first post on this thread and add date and time to it.
IMO, document release should happen ~1600 EST Sunday for local distribution if you want to go that way. |
if you're gonna make it there, get ahold of Hannity - make a sign to hold up or something - say 'need to talk - kerry discharge a go' ; let him /them know.... maybe one of them can split out that day and join us... like Ollie- he'd love it .... darn, wish I were gonna be there -
I was going to try and call the church listed , but if you'll be there....

You're right -- coordinating with a color at this late date would be tough.
Just PROFESSIONALLY DRESSED for all.
But the YELLOW RIBBON on everyone is an outstanding idea!!!
(Red wouldn't be a good color, but it does signify some of my thoughts about Kerry) |

Cipher, You've been told when, where and the objective, WTF else does a NCO need from an officer?
Radios: use the cellphones, start IDing bodies and swapping numbers.
Guides: get a list of people who can handle directing crowds and mark them.
Press: simple answer "I'm here because Senator Kerry has proven by his record that he is unfit to serve as President." , point them to an expert, have experts identified (and easily identifiable).
Portapotties: Do it before you go.
Water: Ahhh, BYOB and if any of you have some kind of backpack, stash a few extra in it, there will always be those who would forget their heads if they weren't attached.
Signage: I'll go over to PW and make a mention of this. Do we go without or do we go with only the "10 out of 10 terrorists support Kerry"? |

Good night all.
Behave nicely, as befits our forum.
