Excellent post for an excellent cause. A strong military is vital to any strong civilization and our veterans deserve recognition and care.

Sounds like a pretty interesting blog and I am an ex serviceman so it should be interesting but their site is currently down :( . Any updates Shoe?

It’s back up now Shoogle.

Looks like an interesting site. Always fascinates me the amount of different websites that feature on free shirt friday. Very diverse. For some reason i always assumed they’d be from the marketing niche.

Shows you have a wide range of fans huh.

Yeah at Shoemoney.com they got the maximum exposure and we really appreciate this.

I have checked the site out now. Maybe they were down due to traffic levels from Shoemoney? Its a brilliant site even if you did not serve in the military.

Just watched “The Lucky Ones” last night, great movie about soldiers back in the US on leave, really nice story.

Anyway not digging the shirt so much, the “brought to you by” line is a bit tacky.

Nice. I made a small donation and was able to join the Pentagon Federal Credit Union which is normally limited to serviceman. Best Credit Union in the world.

The website is a nice endeavor. You normally don’t find such websites on the armed forces.

Here in Germany we don’t get at all the army spirit. May be it is because of our history…

With a name like that, one wonders what percentage of users/readers/listeners are waitresses or from the hospitality trade.
