Note to AM: I know, I know but leave it here for a little while - for our best and bravest. Thanks.


Quoting and in full agreement from the email I just received:

"Wow. Just Wow."


If I Die Before You Wake
Its Thanksgiving. Please thank a soldier. Check back here - I'm asking our troop support people for pings. Do something now and it'll get there around Christmas! Please do something - anything. Thanks! :-)

This is a Powerpoint presentation - about 2Mb. I have no idea how much bandwidth I'm allowed. If you can't get it FReepmail me and I'll get it to you. Pass it around.

If you don't have PowerPoint you can download a viewer here: PowerPoint Viewer From Microsoft

Just do it! Happy Thanksgiving!


Two guaranteed FR links to FReepers doing good works for our troops in harm's way:

TOPICS: Culture/Society; Foreign Affairs; Government; News/Current Events

Thanks to Captain Dan - hope this helps! ;-)

Thank you very much, Tunehead, for the plug for our project!

At of the last count update we have sent 1009 knives and other useful gadgets to our troops overseas.

October 21, 2005

I received my Gerber LMF II aircrew knife today, just in time for my deployment to Afghanistan. It is ten times the knife compared to the standard issue Army blade I now carry on my flight vest. I hope I never have to test its capabilities though I have no doubt it would pass with flying colors. THANK YOU very much for letting me carry it and the reassurance that goes with it. You should be very proud of the great work your group is doing. Thank you for your support.

I received you knife in the mail yesterday. I feel compelled to respond and thank you for such a wonderful gift. I was impressed with the quality of the knife (Camillus BK3). I have proudly added it to my basic combat load while here in Iraq. I am more impressed with you and your company. Many people say that they support the troops that are deployed in combat, however, for many they are merely words. You have gone the extra mile and have proven your support and thus have won many customers of your fine product in the future.

Our little group is doing the best we can to keep up with demand, but We very much need your help. Thank you!

FrodoPlease support our Hobbit Hole Pocket knives for the troops project.

Awesome!!
I have to agree.

Fellow Freepers! If nothing else please give this a BTTT post - it'll only take a second - our guys and gals will appreciate your support. For some reason the AM yanked this from Breaking News! Thanks. :-)
