  • More help for our soldiers.....

    Don't know if anybody else has seen this....but I saw a rerun of Glen Beck tonight and he was talking with a guy about this.
    There's a website, here where you can go to divvy up a donation towards these 'fillers' for the military helmets. They cost appx $71 for a kit, and are flying like hotcakes. Hell, even Cher donated some bucks toward the cause.....
    The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center's (DVBIC) funding has been cut in half - from $14M to $7M, so they're needing money from us.

    They slide into the sides/front/back of the helmets to keep them snug against the head. Don't know how many here have actually had to wear helmets, but they're anything BUT snug.

    Check the site out.......our guys/gals will thank you.

    I'd be honored to donate money for head-safety gear. I had never heard about this before. Thanks RC!
    "War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.

      Mods, if you want to add this to the other 'soldier' thread, you can....it deserves a sticky, imo.....:usa:

        The helmets they issue us are some of the most God awful uncomfortable things I've ever worn and these things make helmets at least tolerable and somewhat comfortable. Some of the SPs here have them and I've had the opportunity to check 'em out. Good stuff.
