We will gather at Ground Zero near the main gates of Bangor Naval Base and then line the streets with signs supporting Spec. Swift and other women soldiers as they face double danger in the military. Please remember that our message on January 3rd is about sexual assault in the military and support of Spec. Swift, not about the war.
