Operation Digital Camera: Taking the photos of our troops that the Media won't take.

Posted on 11/25/2005 5:46:20 PM PST by Diva Betsy Ross

I have an idea- why not send some digital cameras over to our guys and gals in Iraq and ask them to send back some photos for us. I will compile a list of people with servers, who will post the photos here at FR- perhaps we could use this thread for a meeting place. My hope is that blogs and friendly media can pick up the photos and spread them around a bit. What we need are:

1)People and organizations who are willing to donate cameras and get them to our troops. 2)Names of people who can receive the cameras over there and who will email the shots back to us. 3) Contacts to get the word out to people who already have digital cameras that we will post them on FR for the world to see. 4)People to bump this thread and pass the idea around.

Screw the media- lets just do the job ourselves.

We need to get this vanity moved moderator. Supporting the troops in this way is despicable.

:) HA!

I'm good for one camera, but it has to be pictures of a withdrawal, because this war is a quagmire.

Cindy Sheehan is the bomb!

I have a couple of friends who have digital cameras and never use them. I am going to ask if I can have them to stick in Christmas care packages to a couple of troops on my list. I just want photos of good things- happy people... all the stuff the media refuses to print.

Of course we will encourage those with the cameras to make sure they do not violate military sensorship rules. I would not want a innocent picture giving the enemy any information.

Love the idea!! Are there no patriotic dig cam manufacturers that can contribute too?

Can't we co-ordinate with some military photographers?? Is there such a thing stationed with our troops?
