I freepmailed to find out where I could help.

I also, went to www.hanes.com, and sent this message to them:

Hi, I was recently surfing the Internet and came upon an article requesting help for wounded soldiers in the Middle East. In the article, the wives of some of the soldiers indicated that the injured service men and woman are in desperate need of underwear (among other things).

In the article, the posters are collecting goods such as razors, toiletries, comfort foods for our heroes.

I noticed there was a pointed comment that the men and woman have a serious need for fresh under clothing. Now, we can do a lot and we will, but Hanes, .... you could solve that little problem. In the big complicated business of fighting for freedom, perhaps we overlook the little things.

I know you have a huge marketing department and every good deed has to be considered but if a pallet or two (or a dozen) of your great product were to find it's way to the these men (and women) who need us now, it would do a lot of good.

Thank-you for your consideration.

Not all letters need to be complaints.

Great idea and follow-through, Joe! I just bought and mailed some Hanes products.
