Michelle, you’re the best (and with a heart of gold). Any opportunity to help our troops, look around, there’s Michelle. Thanks.

There are two places where it asks for a name. Do we enter “Any Soldier USA” where it asks for “Full name” and/or towards the bottom where is asks for ticket information and says,

* Please Enter the First and Last Name on Tickets/Passes. Please seperate each name by pressing the enter button on your computer. If you do not know the name, please save tickets under your name. If tickets are saved under your name, you must pick up the tickets at will-call.

I’m assuming “Any Soldier USA” gets typed into both. Sorry if that seems like a silly question. I just want to make sure a soldier gets their ticket instead of some ticket going unused because I typed something wrong.

This is an outstanding thing to take place!

I can just imagine how the world’s most expensive toilet paper aka The NY Slimes would review these films. I can hear the cries of lack of sensitivity, lack of cultural diversity, lack of understanding, etc., right now.

I hope that I am wrong about this and that this festival will SOMEHOW make its way to NYC (yeah, I know, wishful thinking on my part, but it can’t hurt).

We know Memorial Day weekend is a busy holiday. If you are unable to join us at the GI Film Festival, you can send a soldier in your place with a tax-deductible contribution of $65. Simply purchase a “day pass” and under “name” type in “Any Soldier USA” and we’ll make sure one of our local heroes gets a great day at the movies.

Awesome! If Iwere in the D.C. area I’d try to attend as many of these events as possible. I wish that it were somehow possible to require every anti-victory Leftist and every member of Congress who voted for retreat to attend each and every one of these events to help educate their sorry selves. Heck, even require dear ol’ Michael Mooreto attend. Show him how real documentaries are made and maybe, just maybe get him to truly respect our troops and the nation they defend.
