Beer For Soldiers - Now THIS Is a Project We Can All Support
By Blackfive on Military Stuff

You had better check this out before the chair-warmers hear about it. Tanker Schreiber sends this great idea on how to really support the troops:

2nd BCT soldier's plea to the world: 'Buy us beer' By Seth Robson, Stars and Stripes Pacific edition, Thursday, September 23, 2004
CAMP HABBANIYAH, Iraq — To Sgt. Dale Rogers of Company C, 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment, the near beer that soldiers sometimes get in Kuwait and Iraq tastes like something drained through a wet sock.

But that’s the closest the beer-loving Strike Force (2nd Infantry Division’s 2nd Brigade Combat Team) soldier will get to his favorite drink during the next few months of his deployment in Iraq.

The cyber-savvy soldier, though, has plans to make up for the lost consumption during mid-tour leave to Qatar and when he and his mates return to the States next year. And it won’t cost him a cent.

Rogers is the creative force behind www.beerforsoldiers.com, a Web site which allows true patriots to buy soldiers a beer online. The shaved-headed infantryman set up the Web site in February just before he joined 1-503 in South Korea, where the unit was based before deploying to Iraq last month.
