Sgt. Maj. Winfrey, reporting for duty! We're on location with 640 pregnant moms-to-be! Plus, celeb moms Cindy Crawford, Heather Locklear, Denise Richards and more! And, breaking baby news.
Oprah's on a secret mission: to throw the world's biggest baby shower at the Fort Campbell Army Base for 640 pregnant women who are all due within three months of each other!
To be all that she could be, Oprah signed up for some official military training. Once she got the thumbs up from Division Chief of Staff Colonel Joseph Anderson, it was time to surprise some very "expecting" ladies!

Here is a link to the sponsors passing out thousands of dollars in baby things and books. Need to send an AttaBoy just like we send them a note if they support RATS.

As liberal as she is, she is a good-hearted person that does do good deeds for people. I wish more black folks would look upon her, her hard work and her success and what a great life of accomplishment it has given her.
But Jesse Jackson will take care of that...
Wow... I just hope all the math works out.
Not only the wives of our GI's but a number of them were actually female soldiers who are pregnant.
I enjoyed watching it and found myself getting a little teary-eyed at times remembering my own pregnancy. I also didn't see any of the celebrities politicizing the event.
Oprah also was game and scaled down the 34 foot wall that's used to train soldiers. She's got more guts than I do!
I just finished watching it too! It was great to see the support for them, they certainly deserve it!! I too, got a little teary-eyed..especially when Martina McBride sang that song. I LOVED Kenny Chesney!! wooohooo!! God Bless our troops and their families who sacrifice so much for us!!!
