Brother they need us old Vets to cover the home front ... let's put that sniper experience to good use right here at home ... say Berkeley ......

BTW I went to my good friend Jim who happens to be an Admiral and offered my time to teach electronic for AIMD personnel. After all I helped design a lot of ALRs (ALR-45/69 MRCA, ALR-74 etc). He said he would look into it.

That's the attitude. We old pharts can be of great assistance, if we can find the right "rule-bender".

Perhaps you can help me. During the VietNam war a fellow co-worker had to go. He was young, as was I, and I told him if he sent me his address I'd write to him. He sent an APO address and I wrote to him while he was in VietNam. When he came back he held my hands and said "You will never, ever know how much your letters meant to me". Now I'd like to do the same for a military person engaged in our current war. but I knew Jimmy and he sent me an address. I've searched the Internet and can't find anything about writing to a military person who might, like Jimmy, have anyone who will write. Today I went to our local American Legion hall, expecting to find someone who might help and just found a bar with about six guys. I feel this is important and I'd really like one American soldier to know that this American appreciates what he's doing for us and helping in any way I can. Can anybody help as to identifying a soldier who may need letters from home? Thanks!
