Actually Rose, it's *YOU* who have made a difference. It has been your perseverance and dedication to making this project happen that has been a source of inspiration for many, and a source of delight for thousands and thousands of kids.
Politics aside, one has to appreciate what our troops are going through and you don't have to be a parent to feel for the children left behind. Your drive to continue this and follow through is nothing short of amazing, and I for one, tip my hat to you!
It has been our pleasure to help and thanks are not necessary. We only hope that you continue to put smiles on the faces of those affected, and that you will receive the accolades that are truly deserved.
All the thanks go to you, and I hope others will join in and express that in more ways than one!

Rose,
I give YOU a standing round of applause, as I am sure all of the servicemen who have used your tags will join in.

You have honored me by your commitment to this project. That means more to me than any pat on the back ever could. I can say it a million times: Lots of people think that if they Say they support the troops, that is enough. You and I know that is just the first step.
We are all set, the tags will be shipped to Harold Bieber in Ga. who has offered to engrave them and then ship them to us. The chains are on their way compliments of Brett Halle of Comet Technologies. By the way, a couple of the seniors who do the bagging are WWII vets, one has cancer but loves doing the tags. He gets so excited when he receives letters from the soldiers!
Thank You All!
I would also like to thank Steve Roehik from Indygital Design & Printing.
We received tags in the mail today that he had been working on for us.
Thank You Steve

The small contribution I made pales compared to the time, effort, and commitment you and others have put into this. I feel honored to be able to assist in any way -- those in the military (and their families) have made great sacrifices that I cannot even imagine.
Thank you for bringing honor to our profession and a smile to the children.

When I started this, I had hoped it would be embraced by the engraving and sublimation industries since it really is an example of what we do. I thought it was a perfect way for our industry to Support The Troops.
Thank You and the others in the industry who understand that.

Thank You Bret Dedmore (Shaddy) for getting behind the dog tags project. You will be bringing a little joy into so many lives.
I am attaching a picture of a magnetic ribbon that I made for one of our volunteers who's grandson is in Iraq. Everyone in her family has one on their car now as do I. It makes a nice gift for someone worried about a family member.
