The Pledge of Allegiance

                                       
Wouldn't it be a pity if someone said,
 "That is a prayer," 
                        and that would be eliminated from schools, too?"

"Operation ShoeBox" has started cutting the Stars out of Retired American Flags that were
weathered too bad for flying, and placing  them in  small clear plastic holders with a note that says;
"Packed with Love and Support by Volunteers of Operation Shoebox"
And then they are sent out to our American Heroes in Iraq.
The soldiers have been carrying them in their wallets or their top pocket  close to their hearts.
A very nice way to let them know that were still thinking about them back home.

Announcement of Memorial Dedication Honoring

"ATTENTION  MEMBERS"

Service Officer Alert - "Veterans Affairs Services"

The VA General Counsel has notified us that an organization called "Veterans
Affairs Services" appears to be holding itself out as a recognized service
organization; it is not a recognized service organization.  This
organization may be assisting veterans and others to file claims and, in the
process, obtain personal information.  The GC has asked us to ask you to
report any contact you may have had with "Veterans Affairs Service".

If you have any examples of "Veterans Affairs Service" helping veterans or
other claimants file claims with VA please call Fred Burns, Assistant
Director, at (202) 608-8367.  Please be prepared to provide at least the
name and telephone number of the veteran when you call Mr. Burns.

http://www.vaservices.org/us/index.html

VAS may be gaining access to military personnel through their close
resemblance to the VA name and seal.  Our Legal Counsel has requested that
we coordinate with DoD to inform military installations, particularly
mobilization sites, of this group and their lack of affiliation or
endorsement by VA to provide any services.

In addition, GC requests that if you have any   examples of VAS acts that
violate chapter 59 of Title 38 United States Code, such as VAS employees
assisting veterans in the preparation and presentation of claims for
benefits, please pass any additional information to...

Governor Granholm Signs Legislation to Expand Veterans Memorial Park, 
Erect Purple Heart Monument

LANSING – Governor Jennifer M. Granholm has signed legislation honoring Michigan veterans and commemorating their contribution through a Lansing-area memorial.  The two bills will increase the size of the Veterans Memorial Park and create a monument in the park honoring Michigan recipients of the Purple Heart Medal.

“The members of Michigan’s armed forces have provided perhaps the greatest service to our state and our country,” Granholm said.  “It is important that we honor the sacrifices of Michigan’s Purple Heart recipients.”

Veterans Memorial Park was created under the Michigan Vietnam Veterans Memorial Act.  House Bill 5620 increases the size of the park by nearly an acre.  Veterans Memorial Park is located in Lansing near the Supreme Court Hall of Justice, two blocks west of the State Capitol building. 

Senate Bill 764 creates the Purple Heart Recognition Act.  The act requires the erection of a Purple Heart monument within the expanded Veterans Memorial Park.  The Purple Heart honors members of the armed forces who are wounded or killed in battle.  Approximately 60,000 recipients of the Purple Heart currently live in Michigan.

This statue currently stands outside the Iraqi palace,  
now home to the 4th Infantry division.
It will eventually be shipped home
and put in the memorial museum in 

Fort Hood
, 
Texas

The statue was created by an Iraqi artist named Kalat, who
for years was forced by Saddam Hussein to make the many
hundreds of bronze busts of Saddam that dotted 



Baghdad



.
Kalat  was so grateful for the Americans liberation of his 
country;   he melted 3 of the heads of the  fallen Saddam
and made the  statue as a memorial to the American soldiers
and their fallen warriors.   Kalat worked on this memorial 
night and day for several months.

"EVENTS COMING UP"

Let every nation know,
whether it wishes us well or ill,
that we shall pay any price,
bear any burden,
meet any hardship,
support any friend,
oppose any foe,
to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

John F. Kennedy
