FR Idea for MIA Bracelets Honoring WTC/DC/PA Patriots
self ^ | 9/20/01 | self

After discussions from a previous thread concerning POW/MIA day on Sept. 21st, I bounced around the idea of finding engravers here at FR to come up with tribute bracelets in the POW/MIA tradition for the victims of the recent attacks on America. In no way do I mean to detract from the respect and honor due the POW/MIA issue.

I am looking to get the ball rolling on this quick.

FR should find a way to auction off the bracelets of the 5000+ victims of these attacks and send the money to the victim's survivor's funds.

We need a source of supply for the bracelets, probably available from POW/MIA sources.

We need a slogan for all the bracelets, a standard phrase or maybe something from the Presidents speech tonight.

We also need engravers.

I am open to suggestions my friends. Help us get this started and help us follow through to completion this fund raising effort. Surely we have the resources at our disposal as a group to make this happen.

We need folks to keep this bumped to the top (bttt)

And last but not least,

"LET'S ROLL"

Great Idea! We must work to obtain the OFFICIAL LIST of missing or deceased. Should we ask the victims families for permission to include their family members in our tribute?

got tossed into a mess with work (defense) and have not gotten anywhere on this so far. Lots more legal issues involved than I originally thought.

Still working it.

been tough for me lately to do much on this . Flying a lot and doing a lot of Defense Contracting work. Expect to be out of the net for at least 2 months.
