Thanks much!
I will post it tomorrow on the t.v. talk show thread and touch base with MNJohnnie who has extensive military contacts and will probably be able to tell us how to go about it.
A friend of mine had a couple of hundred tee shirts I think i could get if he still has them and maybe start it off.

It took him a while to get through the preliminaries

The local West Michigan radio outlet which carries
Rush picked up on the story and ran it in their short news blips yesterday.
Randy Remenap was listening to the live broadcast. He like Greg, was humble and didn't want to take any credit.

It's good Greg called Rush instead of Savage.

Michael would have cut him off after one sentence so he go into his
"I'm smarter than everyone else, and despise you all" rant.

I am a high school teacher from Michigan. I don't know if this was about our school but I do know we've had clothing drives for Iraq. Hopefully we will do it again this school year.

Here's the story from Grand Rapids, MI radio station WOOD.

The Remenap family in Grandville just received one of the more publicized kudos it could from an American soldier on the Rush Limbaugh Show.
Randy and Judy Remenap adopted Naval Reservist Greg Moyes as he was stationed in Iraq.

The Remenap family organized a donation drive when Moyes told them that the Iraqi people need clothes.
Randy Remenap, you may recall, is the former Principal at Grandville High in the mid-90's.
Remenap says he coordinated the students councils in the Rockford and Kentwood school districts,
collected the clothes, and shipped approximately 60 boxes to Iraq.

The drive started last May and by the time it was finished, they had collected about 1,200 pounds of clothes.

I teach at East Kentwood HS just south of GR. We should have another drive this fall.

I listened to this and all I have to write is : May God bless all of these fine folks and I'm glad they care about their fellow man.

I want to get involved, and did a google search on "Adopt-A-Soldier Program" but came up with a LOT of different sites. Can someone suggest which are the best?

I also heard Rush and Greg yesterday and I think Greg hit it spot on with what he said about the politicians! He made most of them sound like the fools they are.

There are a lot of Americans across this nation that have been sending stuff to our men and women in Afghanistan and Iraq. Many different groups, different circumstances in how they and individuals came to wanting to help. All with the same purpose. Support our troops.
