I spoke to a mother of a vet that just got home from 1 term in Afghanistan and 2 in Iraq and she said t shirts are badly needed because of the heat and that they literally rot on their bodies.No armor on trucks either!!! I sure hope there is a BIG investigation into where all the money has gone!!!

have her set up an address that we could ship them to?

3. I will gladly buy some t-shirts. Get me the info I need and they're on the way! |

It's shit like this that really pisses me off. They can spend $128,000 A MINUTE on this damn invasion, but our soldiers don't have freakin' armor on their vehicles and no FREAKIN' T-SHIRTS to wear and are fed rotten food? Where's all the money gone??? I think we're about to find out, thanks to Waxman and Conyers.

that how our fighting troops are being treated. They are also ordered to keep their mouths shut to the media.

6. Give me sizes and an address where these can be sent and |
|
I'll do my part. If it is easier for me to mail directly to the troops I will send them right away. If you need a clearing house address to keep track of what is being sent I'll forward to them ASAP.
T-shirts, something as easy to supply as t-shirts and these people are going without? Jeez, this shit needs to stop right now. We're in charge, let's start acting like.
