Love the troops – Hate the war. This vigil has been controversial because it is sometimes misunderstood. The purpose of this vigil is to raise awareness within our community and among the media that the most injured soldiers are brought to Walter Reed to be treated and should not be forgotten. They are our responsibility. Many of these soldiers, wounded in Afghanistan and Iraq, and their families face long-term disabilities, difficult bureaucracy and shortfalls in funding. This is one of the sad and hidden costs of war. Our presence is a visible reminder that our wounded and disabled soldiers and veterans need and deserve our support. Please join us, you can sing, or hold a candle, or talk with others who believe as most of the country now does, it is time to bring the troops home and to take care of them when they get here – whatever the cost!
