Subject: October 5Th Rally To Save The "HOME"


Col Dan,
I hope that I fit the profile for your intended audience. I am an advocate for saving the "HOME" at VA, WLA, the "biggest and the busiest" VA facility in the country, from take over by neighborhood groups posing to be "Veteran" organization.
I find your information very useful and I place them in category, "budget flaws", "Health care flaws", "political players" and "non-political" and, of course, Col Dan.
I value your daily emails and we do glean information to support our position, Veterans land for Veterans, from it. Too, you reach a lot of folks and, in my opinion, your email list is very Veteran Network.
For these reasons, I have attached a flyer for the mother-of-all-rallies. You may be aware that WE THE VETERANS, the ad hoc organization of Veteran advocates who has joined forces to save the Home (as described in the Grant Deed of 1888), have held 28 rallies for the last 28 Sundays on the corners of Wilshire and San Vicente boulevards, in WLA, California. We have been supported, mainly, by Veterans of WWII and Korea, men and women who know that our position is based on solid fact.
I am asking you to consider spreading the word for us to demonstrate to the carpet bag bureaucrats and NIMBY minded community of Brentwood, that we are honest in our pursuit and that our goal is only to serve the good for Veteran patients that need the space to develop a model health care program.
Sempre Fi,
Francisco Juarez
WE THE VETERANS
