Below is the planned route that the caravan of vehicles participating in the "Fight for Victory Tour" will take. We invite you to get in your own vehicle and drive along with us. If you can, put some patriotic decorations on your car - lots of red, white and blue & American flags.

You can also feel free to line the caravan route. In our last such national caravan we had people waving American flags from their properties, others who posted signs supporting our troops along the highways and roads we took. Let's show the world we love and support our troops and we won't back down in our efforts to give them the support on the home front to achieve VICTORY in the war on terrorism.
