Pro-Troops Rally at Marines Recruiting Office: Berkeley, March 22, 2008

On March 22, 2008, a coalition of patriotic and veterans’ groups held a large rally in front of Berkeley’s “U.S. Marine Corps Officer Selection Office” (better known as the Marines recruiting office in Berkeley, CA) in support of American troops and their missions.

This rally — with at least 400 participants at any one time and probably well over 500 grand total — was much larger than any of the previous anti-troop protests at the office organized by Code Pink or World Can’t Wait, which usually range from less than ten people to perhaps 50 at most on a few rare occasions.

There has already been extensive coverage of this pro-troops event at various outlets, so I’ll skip the blow-by-blow coverage of what happened, and instead simply present a selection of interesting photos and scenes from the day.
