This sounds like a wonderful idea. We have people fighting to keep war off our shore. We owe them and their families some help. I'll get behind this and encourage other readers to join.

Personaly, I think this is just a "SCAM" if YOU ask me. "The Utah Federation of Republican Women is sponsoring a service campaign from now through June 28 to assist Landstuhl Hospital, the largest overseas military hospital, to gather outerwear for U.S. troops in the Middle East." The Military takes care of its own in the field and out of the field. Plus the VA just for a $38.6 BILLION DOLLAR grant from our Great President Bush this year alone. I served in the US Army from 69 - 75 and I know. Plus I am a true Republican for 40 years as well.

This so called campaign is nothing more than a scam.

It's a "money making scam" for those that started it.
