Sergeant Joseph Bozik, an Airborne Soldier with the 118th MP Company (Airborne) from Ft. Bragg, was recently wounded. He has lost both legs and an arm from a landmine, is not not conscious and has many medical complications. On Monday, Sergeant Bozik will be flown into Walter Reed from Landstuhl (Germany).

Unfortunately, the family doesn't have enough money to maintain themselves in a hotel (let alone buy food) for an extended period. The Army paid for airfare for 2 family members and Soldiers' Angels paid for airfare for 2 two more. The Angels can cover hotel expenses for only three days. Fisher House is full so they have to stay at a hotel.

We need your help. You can donate directly to a fund set up to assist the family with caring for Joe. You can send donations to the address or call the phone number below.

A SOLDIER AND HIS FAMILY NEED US.

Can y'all spare a little to help this gravely wounded
hero's family get to him? I know I would want to be with
my sons if either were in danger. My contribution is in
the mailbox waiting for tomorrow's post. Please consider being a part of this worthy cause.

patriciaruth and McLynnan: Can you ring your pings for
help, please? LakeLady

Hi. Would you please ping me also when you get the info? I have a Centura bank right down the street from me and I'd like to make my donation there if I can.

I wrote to the email address on the article that Ragtime Cowgirl posted; this is the reply that I got:



Howlin,

I have not heard anything about the fund at the bank in NC. The only recovery fund I know of is the one set up here in Bryan/College Station, Texas:

Donations to the Sgt. Joseph Bozik Recovery Fund can be made at any First American Bank location or All Seasons Storage Center, 3201 Earl Rudder Freeway South, a mile north of Rock Prairie Road.

Cards and letters of support can be sent to Sgt. Joseph Bozik, 3708 E. 29th St., PMB 124, Bryan, Texas 77802

you may try writing the family at the private mailbox set up here in Bryan.

Hope this helps.
