Operation "Valour IT"
*radio static cuts out*
ATTENTION ON THE NET, This is Blackfive.
GUIDONS! GUIDONS! GUIDONS!
Time to rally everyone. Lefties, Righties, and those Centrists who care about the troops need to get the word about how to help the wounded troops...
How do you communicate through electronic means if you are wounded and unable to type?
Project "Valour IT" is born of an idea from wounded Captain, Chuck Ziegenfuss, and is now operational. We need your help getting computers and voice-activated software to the soldiers who need it.
For you military types, Bill at Castle Argghhh! has the 5 paragraph operation order. Brief back in 1 hour.
The Lioness at Fuzzilicious Thinking and Barb at Righty in a Lefty State have more.
Here's the page at Soldiers Angels where you can find out more about the project and how to donate to enable the wounded soldiers to be able to communicate with their loved ones.
If you're blogger, link to it. If your a reader and supporter, email the Soldiers' Angels Project "Valour IT" link to your friends and family.
Thank you very, very much.
Blackfive, Out.
