face=Arial>Greetings Ansteorra,<BR><BR>As many of you have heard and read in
the last two weeks, one of our own;<BR>Friedrich von Konigsberg, was killed
while serving his country in Iraq. <BR>One of the things that we learned
from Friedrich's frequent emails home was<BR>just how much receiving care
packages meant to the soldiers serving in<BR>Middle-East. Anything that
these brave men and women get from home helps to<BR>lift their spirits and
reminds them that we appreciate their service. <BR><BR>In honor of Friedrich
and his life, many of his friends have begun gathering<BR>and sending care
packages to the men and women who are serving in Iraq and<BR>Afghanistan.
This has lead people from Bryn Gwlad, where Friedrich lived, to<BR>begin
working as a group to gather and send care packages to our troops
in<BR>harm's way. I therefore invite, nay, challenge the other baronies,
shires<BR>and cantons in this great kingdom to do the same. How many groups
out there<BR>are willing to put forth just a little effort to let our
soldiers and<BR>marines who serve in hazardous duty know that we remember
and appreciate<BR>them? All you need is one or two people from each group to
coordinate the<BR>effort of collecting the donations, then boxing and
shipping it - everyone<BR>else can just drop off donated items at fighter
practice or populous<BR>meetings. It's that easy. <BR><BR>What's that? You
don't know what to send or where to send it? That's not a<BR>problem - just
have your group's coordinator contact us at the email address<BR>below, and
we'll tell you all that you need to know. Furthermore, we'll keep<BR>a tally
of the groups who are joining in this effort and sing each group's<BR>praise
on these lists and in as many courts as possible. <BR><BR>We often speak of
heroes in the SCA, and sing their praises. Well now we<BR>have the chance to
honor true heroes - the men and women who have<BR>voluntarily placed
themselves in harm's way in order to help keep us safe.<BR>Come on,
Ansteorra, let's do what little we can to honor and support
these<BR>heroes!<BR><BR>Thank you,<BR>Sir Pendaran & Mistress
Jehanne<BR>(twinoak@cox-internet.com)</FONT></BLOCKQUOTE></DIV>
