Many of you who live in the Puget Sound region have probably seen the holiday greetings from soldiers in Iraq currently airing on local television stations. Su Ring at KING 5 was kind enough to forward a list of scheduled appearances for this week (see below). If you see your loved one's name, but miss the clip, let us know and she can forward the clip to you via email. As new schedules are compiled she will send them to us. Thanks Su!

I'm assuming any new schedules we receive will have the names - similar to this one.

Looking for my son's greeting. He says he was interviewed by CNN. Will you be adding more names?

Do you know if it was just the Task Force Olympia team that was interviewed or if there were other units that also got interviewed. My husband is in Charlie 2-14 CAV part of the 1/25.

2-14 CAV, and all of the 1/25 SBCT, are part of Task Force Olympia.

Hi-- If you did not see your loved one's greeting, please email me: sring@king5.com with your address and I will send you a tape.
To Heather Bills: your husband did not include a contact phone number so I could not reach you, but I am happy to send you a tape!
Happy Holidays!
