Project: “Letters From Home”

BUMPED TO TOP
I’m working with the 1st Battalion 1st Marine Regiment to get every one of their soldiers a letter of support from home. This is where you, my readers, come in to the picture; I need you to write these men and women, and then spread the word about the project to everyone you can. We need about 1000 emails in order to get one to every Marine. Please put letters from home in the subject line.Update: The address I’ve set up for project Letters From Home is letters@thinking-right.comI’m going to keep this post up top for a while. Check below for newer posts.

    Jim Cannon at Thinking Right has a new project and could use a lot of help — and the best part is that the more we help, the more we support the troops. Picking up where Blackfive left off, Jim…

  4. UK Cracks Down on MilBlogging

    Touchy topic, crackdowns on military blogging.
    My view on this is somewhat controversial, too. There was a similar crackdown on milblogging in the U.S. If the Department of Defense believes milblogging is a security risk, it should restrict blogging. I…

  10. Correction

    They are not soldiers - They are *marines*! There is a big difference and it starts a Boot v “Basic” and goes from there.

  11. Thank You ALL for what you do, and may God Bless You all, and all of yours. Know there are MANY of us standing behind you, and supporting you.

  12. I’ll certainly help. I also wanted to note that eMailOurMilitary.org is a charitable organization that can help you with this project. They do this all year round along with having seasonal support projects & sending care packages etc. Hope you’ll check them out too and help to support the troops in need there as well.

  16. Should we send some printer paper?? I think there might be a few more than the 1,000 or so they hoped for….. ;-) Soldiers’ Angels is pushing this out to all of our members also.

  17. Jim:

    I got this off of GeezervilleUSA, and I asked if it would be alright to post this on my blog too, and he said yeah. So it has also been posted to “Tired of all the Liberal Rhetoric out there” … hope this will help a bit as I average about 2,000 hits a month, and have regular readers.

    This is a great effort and I will definitely send my own letter. God Bless you, and I blogmarked you and Geezerville.
