Our motivation
There are several reasons for our radio
show and website.....
Support our troops
Our troops need support our support, period. We need to take the focus
from the overpaid celebrities and athletes that make mistakes, and put
it on our underpaid and under-appreciated serviceman and servicewomen
that are fighting for our freedom. While we can't fix what happened to
service members in Vietnam, we can certainly help assure that the
military of today never feel unappreciated or ashamed for serving their
country. They need to know, unconditionally, that we support them,
regardless of our views on war or politics. Low morale leads to mistakes - let's
them know we care about them, and appreciate what they are doing.
Veteran's Day and Memorial Day are not enough
Our veterans need to be recognized more than twice a year. Our phone
lines are open on the show for veterans to call in any time to share
their thoughts and experiences, and for family members or friends of
vets to call in and simply say thanks. We've also made it easy to recognize our
local Hernando County veterans by recording all 1,600+ names on the
Hernando County Veterans Roll of Honor.
It shouldn't take the death of a service member
for us to show patriotism as a community
In August of 2007, my wife, children, and I attended the funeral for
PFC Cody Grater. It was awe inspiring. We were there to offer support
for the family, and also thank a hero. Proud Americans from every walk
of life lined up for miles to show their support as well. It
shouldn't take a death for us to share in showing our patriotism. You
are welcomed to call into the show any time to voice your thanks to our
veterans, and support for our troops! |
