TIKRIT, Iraq, July 20, 2006 -- The Denver Broncos cheerleaders came halfway around the world to show that the troops mean the world to them.

"This is wonderful for them to come and perform for us; to let us know that people care, that’s what it’s all about."
U.S. Army Sgt. William Rodgers

The cheerleaders performed for hundreds of soldiers at the Morale, Welfare and Recreation Theater on Contingency Operating Base Speicher near Tikrit, Iraq.

“I think that the fact you have red, white and blue pumping through your veins is awesome,” said Keela Harris, Broncos cheerleader.

Another Broncos cheerleader, Kelsey Vernon added that the troops deserve so much more, but was glad to offer what they could.

The 12 ladies performed for two hours using outfits of different themes, performing many different energetic dance routines and preformed skits for the appreciative troops.

“This is wonderful for them to come and perform for us; to let us know that people care, that’s what it’s all about,” said Colorado native Sgt. William Rodgers, 501st Special Troops Battalion, 101st Airborne Division.

Vernon stated this is their fourth show of the 10 in their Middle East tour. They have already performed two shows in Kuwait and two in Iraq and will continue their tour in Iraq through July.

I hope no-one with an evil sense of humor decides to post pics of Helen Thomas on this thread.

If it happens, I can't be held responsible.
