Army Wall of Fame seeks autographed pics

Just got the following email:

Subject: Army Wall of Fame

Dear Comics of SHECKYmagazine:

Hooah! I’m hoping you can help me with a project for the United States
soldiers. As a medic in the United States Army, I started a project to
boost the morale of my fellow soldiers while on deployment. It showcases
over 1000 celebrities and positive role models from around the globe who
have autographed pictures to the soldiers.

It is the Army Wall of Fame and it’s a great tribute to all who have worn
the uniform to defend the freedom of the United States of America. The
address is ArmyWallofFame.com.

The Army Wall of Fame is a huge success due to the benevolence of actors,
actresses, television personalities, athletes, and positive role models from
around the globe. We would like to continue to see the Wall expand at the
largest military base in the United States. The Wall is located in one of
Ft. Hood’s most high traffic area which is the United Services Organization
(USO).

I’m requesting autographed photos personalized to the U.S. Soldiers and one
for my private collection. Please send the items to the address listed
below. We look forward to receiving your autographed photo and seeing you
on the Wall at Ft. Hood, TX! You will also be showcased on
www.armywalloffame.com under one of the
Identification Tags.

I can be reached online at armywalloffame@hot.rr.com or by phone at
254-366-3226 if you have any questions regarding the Army Wall of Fame. If
you would like a complimentary banner link to your site, please e-mail me
with that information. Thank you for your support of America’s soldiers.

I recently returned from Iraq and I can assure you that the men and women
that are deployed under Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) appreciate your
support! We’ll also sending extra pictures and items to the soldiers in
Iraq and Kuwait if you would like to include more than one personalized
item. Please share this information with your friends. Over past two
years, we’ve helped raise over $200,000 worth of donations for the troops.
Thank you!

Sincerely,

Timothy D. Stroud

We’re warming up the brand new retractable Sharpie. A dozen headshots of each of us are on the way, as soon as the local post office opens tomorrow. I’m not so sure we fall under the “positive role model” classification, but the case could be made for some degree of celebrity.
