A Message of SUPPORT for our Troops deployed in harms way.

VetsCoR is pleased to present: a CD message of support from America to our Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, Marines and Coast Guardsmen deployed in the Middle East, and other places around the globe, in the ongoing war on terrorism. This CD will have an auto-executable 33 minute slide show containing OVER 500 pictures of rallies of support from 90 rallies in over 80 cities that were held during the month of March. In addition to the picture slide show, we have included music to lift the spirits of our warriors deployed, to let them know we love them and appreciate the sacrifice they're making in our name and on behalf of FREEDOM.

VetsCoR collected OVER 600 photos from 90 PRO-TROOP rallies around the country, and it was a tough job to select the best of those submitted, but our committee of one did yeoman's work on this project.

Click here (download from VetsCoR) or here (from Free Republic) to view a 5 minute segment from the slide show in .wmv (Windows media viewer) format (approx. 13.5mb). Click here to watch a RealMedia streaming preview. Other formats will be posted as soon as possible.

The master CD is ready to be duplicated, and now we need your help. To get the CD duplicated and mailed out requires money. Our estimate is $5,000.00 to duplicate 1000 CDs and to mail the CDs to the recipient. Please click here to make a donation via PayPal to help us complete this project and get the CDs to our troops in the field. If you want to donate but are uneasy about donating online, please send your check, in whatever amount and payable to VetsCoR, to:

If you have a family member deployed, and would like to send them a copy of the CD, please click here. (VetsCoR will mail a copy of the CD FREE to any APO/FPO or military address.)

WAY TO GO!!!

[NotJustAnotherPrettyFace]

Important bump to the top!!! I will be buying several of these for shipment to family and friends serving in the military!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Hi Everyone. The VETSCOR finished their PHOTO CD with MUSIC to send to the troops. It is a CD of all the "SUPPORT THE TROOPS" rallies. They want the troops to know that America wasn't just those nightly news shots with the anti-war crowds.

The huge support rallies didn't make it in the news like the anti-war rallies did.. so the VetsCor did this CD.

This is just an awesome undertaking by VETSCOR.

Thanks VETSCOR..and PINGING everyone I think highly of.. hoping they will PING their lists too.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, & God Bless, Vets

Kudos to Vetscor, Rodger Hunter, and Rally participants across the nation.

Troop Support Bump

[2Jedismom]

I would like to send a copy to the chaplain that the Hobbit Hole has been sending care packages to...but I can't give his address out.

Could you send me a copy and trust me to get it to him? I have sent about 22 packages to the 82nd Airborne in Afghanistan in the last few weeks and we even have pictures to show that they are getting there!

The people in the Hobbit Hole can vouch for my integrity...

(I hope...LOL!)

[HiJinx]

A little skid grease is on it's way to you right now.

Thanks for all you do!

[RMDupree]

I'm here and I'm vouching!

[Sam Cree]

2Jedismom is the lady. She is a true American.

[2Jedismom]

Thanks guys!

[armymarinemom]

Big KUDOS!!
Support from home means the world.

[HairOfTheDog]

Another vouch!

[JulieRNR21]

BRAVO BUMP for a fantastic accomplishment!

[SuziQ]

The people in the Hobbit Hole can vouch for my
integrity... (I hope...LOL!)

Yeah, we'll vouch for her, and so will the folks at her local Ace Hardware/Post Office. She brings them chocolate chip cookies to thank them for their help getting the packages sent!

[2Jedismom]

Thanks fellow Hole Dwellers!

I think the soldiers would love one of these.

The Hobbit Hole Supports the 82nd Airborne Division!

BTTT!

BUMP

[Alamo-Girl]

Buuuump!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I'm going to buy a couple right now. I can think of a certain POW from Vietnam I'm going to send it to as a gift. :o)

It really serves as a message to those who served before too.

I think copies should be sent to the Pentagon too. They would LOVE it!! As well as Our Commander in Chief, VP Cheney, Sec. Rumsfield and Sec. of State Colin Powell. Gen. Franks and Gen. Meyers can look at the Secretary of Defenses. So I guess I'll buy 5 copies.

FRegards, Vets

[blackie]

CD ... Bump!

[deadhead]

I will send in my donation and purchase CD's via snail mail. I have family and a family friend serving over in Iraq, I will purchase the CD's for them and I will mail the CD's to them. Thank You to all involved for all the hard work that was put into this wonderful project.

Thanks for the ping Vets and Tonkin, was wondering about this project recently.

[osagebowman]

2JM et al. Chalk up another one for 2 Jedismom; that lady is the real deal.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Your welcome..and BUMP! :o)

BUMP

[Jim Robinson]

I added links in the thread above to play the 5 minute preview clip using Windows Media Player. Can be downloaded from either VetsCoR or Free Republic. Great job on the CD and clip!!!

[A Navy Vet]

I get a bunch of characters on screen rather than opening my Media Player. I have to copy the URL into Windows Media Player...what the hey?

For everyone's information, the CD is much clearer and in focus, except for a few small file photos that had to be enlarged. Plus, the music picks up after the second song.

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

I just sent the check for my copies :o)

This is so great.. the people who did get out and support the troops WILL LET IT BE KNOWN they did!!

I'm getting two now,.. but I can think of a lot of ways to get more and use them. We live by an Air Force Base, I was thinking it would be really neat to give one to the Base Commander. If someone doesn't know how to get on base, then go to the cities mayors. They have contact with Base Commanders.

This is a really beautiful CD. Just blown away by the professional quality and beauty of it.

FRegards, Vets

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

It just started to play the Lee Greenwood song when it quit! I love that song,.. can't wait to get my copy so I can see the whole thing!!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Did you get to open the link and see this? Wow.. so great. I just ordered a couple, and I have to say I'm very excited about sharing this. I can assure you it will be playing in a few offices I KNOW :o)

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Wasn't the brief sample AWESOME!!! Thanks for the bumps friend. I sure hope this gets out there, the group that did this, really want the troops to see what the media didn't show them. This is so great. :o)

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Hi FRiend.. Bumpin this thread back at ya :o)

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

Hey Mom... please tell your "armymarine" that we love him or her and appreciate their service. We also appreciate the wives, husbands,thier children, their Moms & Dads, and other loved too.

:o)

We are SO PROUD!!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

YOU'RE AWESOME!!

Wow.. Thank YOU!!

FRegards, VETs

[Eastbound]

The CD is awesome! I rate it as a 'Three Hanky' presentation!

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

AGREE!!!

[firewalk]

Did you get to open the link and see this? Wow.. so great...

Nope, just bumped the thread...

Here's another bttt...I'll try to listen to it sometime over the weekend...

[Vets_Husband_and_Wife]

It is really short.. it is only a sample..and sadly it stops before we get too far into the Lee Greenwood song (just enough to entice you into wanting MORE!!)

:o)

Enjoy when you do get to see it.

FRegards,..and a BUMP for the day.. Vets
