USCGA: Logistics
Posted: 10 May 2007 09:25 AM CDT
Permits have been approved for the New London Rally, where the Eagles will gather to welcome the families of the graduating Coast Guard academy cadets on May 23, 2007.In addition to our support of these families and graduating cadets, we will be welcoming the President of the United States as he addresses the graduating class.
Normally this would be a private event that we would welcome with silent respect. However, this event is already marred by the planned attendance of a radical left wing group known as A.N.S.W.E.R. We believe that this left wing group's presence is an insult to the honor due these graduates and is a personal insult to our President.
The Gathering of Eagles has will rally at 3 locations noted on the attached map.
1. Our first location would be the Academy exit off rte 32 south, at the intersection of Williams Street. We will be facing the families and all visitors to the area as they exit this area and proceed to the Academy entrance.
2. Our second location is on Mohegan Ave, directly across from the Academy entrance. A.N.S.W.E.R. has already secured a permit to be on the same side of the street as the entrance to the Academy. Our position would make us visible to the Families and visitors to the Academy as we set up directly across the street from the entrance. A.N.S.W.E.R. not only has a permit for the area between Williams Street and the entrance, but also on the north side of the entrance. Our location will have a presence directly across from the entrance and both sides of the gate.
3. Our third location is the northern gate entrance to the Academy at the corner of Rte 32 and Deshon Ave. Our permit requested the east and west side of Rte 32 at this corner. Deshon Ave only exits to the east side, but any vehicles exiting rte 32 south onto Deshon Ave will see us. The area on rte 32, on the west side, will be our most visible location for the families to see us as they enter. A.N.S.W.E.R does not have a permit for this location.
