Saturday January 6th and Sunday January 7th in Garden Grove, CA. - a 24 Hour Memorial and Vigil for the 3,000+ American Deaths in Iraq

Military Family Speaks Out (MFSO) will be commemorating the fact that as of today over 3,000 American soldiers and 600,000 Iraqis have died in this senseless war. To honor the soldiers and civilians that have died, we will be displaying 3,000 small crosses, (some with Star of David and Crescent moon), to a long chain link fence with black ribbon.

We plan to have this memorial up from 9:00 AM Saturday Jan 6th to 9:00 AM Sunday Jan 7th. We invite you to come by anytime during these hours and pay tribute to our fallen soldiers. We especially need people to help guard the memorial overnight and share in our collective mourning. Everyone is welcome.

Location: 12262 Harbor Blvd. Garden Grove - between Chapman and Lampson on Harbor (across the street from Target and the CC Camperland RV-Park).
