Better yet, can anyone get the address of this soldier? We should have our kids send a few letters.

Nearest I could find for Camp Casey, Korea was:

USAG ACD
EANC-AI-CFA-ACS
Unit 15543
APO AP 96224

I'll have my first grader writing a letter to Pfc Rob Jacobs this afternoon.

This 8 year Air Force vet would love to have a few minutes alone with this teacher, and school board for that matter. More than feelings would be hurt, I can assure you of that.

Thank you for the address..I believe I heard his dad say that his son would be home on R&R next month, so he'd be able to read them all then!

Thanks for posting that.

I don't have enough time to read through all my pings the last fews days, so forgive me if this has already been answered, but:

Has the teacher been fired yet? Have the students written apologies, or explanations for their vitriol?

I don't much care what the principal or teacher have to say for themselves. I'd like to know that they've explained to the students how wrong the initial brainwashing was.

I specifically looked out for the ones that were negative and took my time to answer them. I always reminded the letter writer that American servicemen and women had died for freedom and for their right to disagree. I communicated a conservative Christian point of view in my answer and asked for God to bless America.

God Bless YOU for your "soft answer that turns away wrath" -- only God knows whether your pearls were cast before swine -- or will become good seed that brings forth 30, 60 and an hundredfold. You're a good example, Grace AND Truth, in that order.

I wonder if anyone bothered to explain to the little Muslim boy the actions of the brave American service members who deployed to South Asia to provide humanitarian assistance to the tsunami disaster victims, MUSLIM victims I might add. Interestingly enough, the Muslim leaders of the world reacted with patronizing indifference, the Saudis and Kuwaitis spending a combined $50 some million, to the vicious, USB's number two guy claiming that it was Allah's punishment on the South Asians for listening to Western music and tapes.
Mean while, back in the real world, the Pentagon spent $40 million a month to provide aid and comfort to the MUSLIM victims of this natural disaster.
P.S. Once terrorists stage out of a Mosque it loses its religious significance, or so the locals tell me.

Did you hear the radio interview Sean had with one of the mothers of the kids who wrote the letters. The child's letter was the one with the happy face on it. She said the teacher gave happy faces to all the kids who turned in assignment on time. Funny thing though, only one letter had a happy face.

She mentioned in passing that the teacher used the New York Times as a source for his students information on current events.

She also said that the letters were assigned to be written to a hypothetical soldier. It was several days later that the teacher asked the kids if they wanted to send those letters to a soldier.

This teacher used those kids.

I tried to call Sean yesterday... I work In Park Slope and used to live here, too. It's 75 Square blocks of Liberal Utopia surrounded by reality. I call it the People's Republic of Park Slope.
I get dirty looks for a support thr troops ribbon, curses for a W-'04 sticker, and I don't even want to describe the reactions I got for the Swiftvets decal last year... The school itself is on 5th Ave & 2nd Street, in the Belly of the beast! If anyone wants to do a live Freep, Let me know.

My Letter:

In response to the NEGATIVE letters sent from school children AT YOUR SCHOOL, to service men and women, FROM OUR COUNTRY.

This is perhaps one of the most disgusting "projects" I have ever heard of.
Keep in mind how protective one would be of 6th graders RECEIVING hateful letters like this, and let's remember that the "men" and "women" in the military who are reading these derogatory pieces of trash were in 6th grade themselves only a few years ago.

How hateful it is to pretend to "communicate" with someone thousands of miles away from home, while really just promoting an agenda of discrimination.

Yes, discrimination:

discrimination

n 1: unfair treatment of a person or group on the basis of prejudice

(http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=discrimination)

Would you be so supportive of the student's "right to free speech" if they were writing to any other anonymous group and "expressing themselves" in such a hurtful and hateful way.

I cannot only hope that for some 18 year old service man or woman, one of these vile letters was not the last thing they read before doing their DUTY and perhaps dying in the process.

Your complete disregard for the need to condemn this "project" is disgraceful.
You are supposed to be a leader of children and a leader of staff.

Do your job.
