OUR FIGHT FOR OUR WOUNDED SOLDIERS
TO MY FRIENDS AT THE FREE REPUBLIC
A few weeks ago I put an article on the Free Republic about our fight to get a banner for our wounded soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines.
I talked with someone in the Pentagon, in regard to our petition, who stated something along the lines as, “Well, that’s great but you have a long way to go to hit 10,000.”
We stand at less than 300 signatures. We are WELL below such earth shaking topics such as, “Save Arrested Development” and keep “Dead Like Me” on the air.
I know everyone is busy, but I would urge each and everyone of you to PLEASE stop by and sign the petition.

Done last month! Hope you get those signatures--the wounded need to be honored in this special way!
Thank you my friend
Steve
I agree.
It is hard to walk that line with tradition and honor but I believe the Silver Star would do it.
Thank you an God Bless
Steve
That might be tough to keep track of. I don't know most people's real names, so how will I know when they sign it? I'm pretty sure 68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub got me to sign it, but I'm not giving out my real name for confirmation.
"Thanks for fixing my post. Wish I knew how to do that"
URL's don't work in the body of the thread.
BUT they do on the posts that follow.

I hope those numbers go up! Our awesome military men and women deserves it, IMO.
Me too sis
Me too.
Steve
That'll work!

Now we know. Thank you
Steve

And your right
NEVER FORGET. May we never treat our vets like we did from Nam. And may we NEVER let them be treated that way.
Steve
I did - #109! I also sent a link to my whole email address book outside of FR.
LOL!! Well, I signed hubby up since I forgot to do that last time, so I got 2 so far.
Yep

It's a great number isn't it?
