Thursday’s opportunity to help and support!
The entry below is taken from Michelle Malkin’s site. Please write a letter of support. I am getting ready to write one tonight. This is the easiest, and most direct way to help that I have posted so far!
Milblogger project: Send an e-mail of support
By Michelle Malkin
June 20, 2007 09:35 PMGrim at Blackfive interviewed Col. Simcock of Regimental Combat Team 6. The colonel asked Americans to send letters of support to RCT-6:
GRIM: Is there anything that you and your Marines need that we could send you?
COL. SIMCOCK: (Chuckles.) I’ll tell you what, the one thing that all Marines want to know about — and that includes me and everyone within Regimental Combat Team 6 — we want to know that the American public are behind us. We believe that the actions that we’re taking over here are very, very important to America. We’re fighting a group of people that, if they could, would take away the freedoms that America enjoys.
If anyone — you know, just sit down, jot us — throw us an e- mail, write us a letter, let us know that the American public are behind us. Because we watch the news just like everyone else. It’s broadcast over here in our chow halls and the weight rooms, and we watch that stuff, and we’re a little bit concerned sometimes that America really doesn’t know what’s going on over here, and we get sometimes concerns that the American public isn’t behind us and doesn’t see the importance of what’s going on. So that’s something I think that all Marines, soldiers and sailors would like to hear from back home, that in fact, yes, they think what we’re doing over here is important and they are in fact behind us.
Thanks to the Blackfive team’s efforts so far, 1,700 e-mails have come in.
Help them out. There are 6,000 members of RCT-6. Send your e-mail of support to:
