Veterans For Peace
Chapter 22 and 56 are planning a new project to restore the Golden Rule!
If you are interested in helping, learn more by contacting Fredy

The mission of the Golden Rule Project of Veterans for Peace (VFP) is to
repair, restore and renovate the famous sailing ketch, the Golden Rule.
This little ship was sailed by four brave crewmen, led by Albert
Bigelow, in an attempt to stop atmospheric nuclear testing in the
Marshall Islands. They were boarded by the US Coast Guard, arrested,
and the boat towed back to Honolulu, twice.
This VFP committee will again sail this boat on the West Coast. This
boat deserves to sail the seas again in opposition to militarism and the
use of nuclear weapons.
