It is no secret that my family and this website are big supporters of Soldiers’ Angels. In fact all of the proceeds from the sale of items out of my Gear Store now go 100% towards Soldiers’ Angels. So I am happy to spread the word here and highlight this clip from Fox News where two guys I am lucky to call friends and “brothers”, Jeff Bader and Toby Nunn are interviewed about the mission of Soldiers’ Angels and the great things they are doing.
These guys, along with all the “angels” that are part of the Soldiers’ Angels organization are true heroes behind the scenes.
We get many guests on the YouServed Radio show that give and donate things to the show which we sell on the ebay store to raise money for the awesome charity of Soldier’s Angels. The auctions run Thursday-Thursday (because the radio show is on Thursday nights). Starting this Thursday Marcus has acquired the new book, Rage Company, A Marine’s Baptism by Fire (Amazon, Barnes & Noble) by Thomas Daly. In addition to getting this book if you win the auction, the publisher has also thrown in a BRAND NEW and much sought after iPad.
So the winning bidder, of the auction that starts on the 29th and will end on May 6th, will win not only this great new book but also a iPad. All in the name of Soldier’s Angels.

This is a hot topic this morning in the “milblogosphereâ€. My buds over at Blackfive.net (both Blackfive himself and Laughing Wolf) felt so strong about this they put up two postings about it HERE and HERE.
The raffle tickets could be purchased through paypal, however it appears that pay-pal’s anti-constitution and gun views have caused them to shut down the entire account for this fund-raiser which provides an awesome product and service to our wounded warriors.
The statement from Soldier’s Angels Executive Director, Patti Patton-Bader says it all:
Online donations through PayPal are a huge part of our fundraising. They shut down our entire account-not just the raffle button—for twelve hours right in the middle of an email fundraising push. Looking at the Terms of Use, we couldn’t understand where we’d gone wrong, but we had to immediately remove the raffle so we could get back online ASAP. This just breaks our hearts because we were so excited about the tremendous fundraising impact the Gun Blogger Rendezvous raffle was already having.
My good buddy, Vampire6 over at AfghanistanShrugged.com has teamed up with Vision Strikewear out of Portland, OR. This company is owned by a group of Marine Reservists and they have agreed to sell the shirts on their website and donate $5 for every shirt sold to Soldiers Angels. Vampire6′s team makes no money from the sale of these shirts.
So this helps a new startup company, which is ran by real warriors help Soldier’s Angels and the warriors they support. This is the type of “stimulus” our country needs. Do your part and order a Team Vampire shirt today by clicking here, http://campaigncasuals.com/22ettvartvs.html
