T-Shirt Project
Another Stryker family has decided to take on a merchandise project. Ardis & Lowell Kenney have designed a t-shirt that is now available for purchase. Provided below is a message from them, which includes a bit of background on the project, a photo of the design, and order forms that you can print out and mail to them. Thanks guys!
First, let me say thanks to Sgt. Ryan Stone for allowing us to use his picture for the graphic. It is just what I had envisioned. Second, Melanie, Ryan's fiancé, Thank you for sending me the picture. Thanks to all of you who posted ideas, suggestions and comments. I value them all.
This project was born from suggestions of several newsgroup members who thought we should have a way to recognize each other when we meet at the long-awaited homecoming of our soldiers. Several people brought up the subject a couple of times. One late night, when as most of my ideas are created, I envisioned the T-shirt with a "Sunrise Stryker." The sunrise theme seemed like a natural, and it just percolated from there.
The proceeds from this project will be put in an escrow account at my business bank. When all is said and done, we plan to donate 25% of the money left over, after paying the related bills, to somewhere that it can be used to benefit any Stryker family in need, be it clothing, food, travel expenses or whatever.
Please help us make this project one that will be remembered by all parties involved. We are looking forward to hearing from you.

Here is a photo of the T-Shirt Design. The order forms have a photo of what the design will look like on the shirt.
Ordering Information:
Use one of the follwing forms. Both are the same, but we have provided two different file formats depending on what software you have available. I would suggest right-clicking on the link below and choosing "Save Target as..." so you can save a copy of the order form on your computer for future use.
PDF Order Form (PDF file, which is quicker to download)
Excel Order Form (Microsoft Excel file)
