Fred Wright, along with other volunteers helps to construct nearly one thousand full-sized commemorative coffins draped in the American Flag in memorial tribute to the soldiers who have died in Iraq (news - web sites), Wednesday, Aug. 25, 2004, in the Brooklyn Borough of New York. The night's event organized by 'OneThousandCoffins.Org' is in preparation for a half-mile long solemn procession planned for Sunday, August 29 that will pass the Madison Square Garden one day before the start of the Republican National Convention.
