Arlington Cemetary Comes to UW Campus

"'Arlington Northwest' memorial is coming to campus this Friday, Nov. 2nd. The memorial consists of crosses, and headstones arrayed as they would be at Arlington National Cemetery one each, with names for of the more than 3,839 American soldiers who have died in the Iraq war. The display will be set up on the Hub lawn and the Quad. This event is being organized by a new UW student formed group called 'Washington Huskies Against Military Occupation in Iraq', or WHAMO. Their web site is www.WHAMOIraq.org. The e-mail is WHAMOIraq@gmail.com. Volunteers are needed especially early in the morning (7-10 am) and in late afternoon to help set up and dismantle this large display . Please help if you can. In any case I hope you can make a point to come see the memorial and stop by the information tables near the HUB building. Yours, Mark Jenkins"
