Forgotten heroes?
Well, this is just sad:
It has been brought to my attention that there are a group of US Marines based from Great Lakes Naval Base, now deployed in Iraq, who are not getting any mail. Not a note, not a love letter, not a care package has been received by them.
Retired Marine and dear friend Marty Smith has been in communication with Col. Curt Ames, USMC, and according to Col. Ames’ contact in Iraq, these Marines never get any mail. I was asked to “drum up some business” for these outstanding Americans. I know that from past requests like this one, many of you have stepped up beyond anyone’s imagination and delivered “big time” to our heroes overseas.
Well…I am asking for support again.
Get busy, folks.
(Thanks to Bubba for the heads-up)
Update! Also from Bubba, this. He says he was gonna post on it himself, but “I know you could do so much better.” Umm, not this time, B; unaccountably, I find myself at a loss for words on this one.
