"Heroes of Peace"
Over 4000 crosses and other religious symbols replicate the real Arlington Cemetery in West Virginia, symbolizing our fallen in this criminal war. This is a tribute to them, to those who fought and came to oppose it, and to those who opposed it from the beginning…all HEROES OF PEACE.

The Los Angeles Chapter of Veterans For Peace and The Arlington West Volunteers
Who have been putting the Memorial up every Sunday since February of 2004!
Most Importantly
IRAQ VETERANS AGAINST THE WAR
Will relate to us, as they just did to a shocked Congressional hearing, how their personal experiences turned them from support for this war to a passion for peace. They grieve not just for themselves, but for the thousands if not millions of innocent Iraqis who have died needlessly, often at the hands of our remorseful vets.
Join these HEROES OF PEACE as they tell us what continues to be the shocking truth about this tragic war.
It’s a story we’ll never forget. Nor should we.
That’s Sunday, May 25th, from 12:30 to 3:00 PM at Arlington West in Santa Monica at the north side of the
Santa Monica Pier (easy parking $8). Sun block and hat recommended.
