Calling all dVets!

Sun May 06, 2007 at 08:30:01 AM PDT

This is the third in a series of daily diaries I'll be posting this week about the impact of the upcoming USPS rate increase on our soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. For those of you who missed them, here are links to the first two:

I am hoping to get some assistance with this action on DKos, especially from the vets here.

If you are a vet who would like to help, please get in touch...my email address is in my profile. Then I can spam you mercilessly about this action throughout the coming week. :-)

I will send out a heads up whenever I post a diary, so you can come give it a rec, maybe post a comment. More important, though, would be to write a related diary...especially one about what it means to receive letters and packages from home while serving your country in a place far, far away.

Of course, if you are not a vet and would like to help, that would be great too.  Just zap me an email and I'll put you on my "Spamming for Soldiers" email list, too!

If you are shy about sharing your email address, then please check back tomorrow around midday (EDT).  That's when I'm going to have my Big Release! with a finished website, flyer, and other information on how to celebrate The Late Great Flat Rate Support Our Soldiers Date.

Thanks already to alizard, ankey, BachFan, craigb, crkrjx, ddriscoll, Democrat, Elise, Ellicatt, Faheyman, fallina7, godislove, Hannibal, JekyllnHyde, jesrf, judybrowni, lazybum, monkeybiz, Magnus Greel, Translator, thereisnospoon, operculum, jennifer poole, ralphie, raster44, silvercedes, statistic, testvet6778, Tigana, and Wee Mama for comments, tips, recommends on my two previous diaries about this action, and to emeraldmaiden and mcjoan for rescuing the first one.
