This is part of our How Berkeley Can U BE Actions in front of the MRS (Marine Recruiting Station), 64 Shattuck Square, Berkeley - on Shattuck Ave just south of University Ave where Shattuck runs one-way north - or two blocks north of the Downtown Berkeley BART Station.

Remember, you can also start your own action - we'll help! The Protest Bag with everything you'll need to vigil when no one else is there, is across the street inside the People's Café! Make sure you THANK them for providing this service and support for us!

AND you can always swing by the station after or before hours, CHALK the sidewalk with messages for the recruiters and those in danger of being recruited.

Also call the station 510-705-8060 daily - speak with Captain Lund, make appointments to talk with him, ask him to honor the people of Berkeley and SHUT DOWN this recruiting station. Keep the lines busy! No business as usual!

All actions take place at the Marine Recruiting Station, 64 Shattuck Square, Berkeley - just south of University Ave on Shattuck Ave where Shattuck runs one-way north
