After WWI many U.S. soldiers moved to the
Californian desert to find physical and emotional healing. In 1934,
they erected a memorial to honor their fallen comrades, a single
white cross, - a symbol used around the world to memorialize those
who paid the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
The site for the memorial was chosen because at a
certain time of day, the sun casts a shadow on the rock which
resembles a WWI doughboy. For more than 75 years, the memorial has
stood as a reminder that there were those who fought and died for
our freedoms. But sadly today, the ACLU and a federal judge in
California, want to tear it down. In fact, the judge has ordered the
memorial covered from view while the case is on appeal. Please join
us in saying "donttearmedown." We think Americans should honor their
war heroes and the freedoms they so valiantly protect; and we're
taking our case all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court this fall.
