FREE ARMOR!

Now that I have all of your attention I 
am looking for some help. I am in contact with several good people that 
are serving in Afghanistan. Currently they have the ability to do Rapier
 Fighting and would like to start Heavy soon the only problem is the 
armour. So in order to help do my part... 

I will be collecting any new or used armour that people are willing 
to part with. Yes armorers, that means I will take anything from you 
too, it doesn't have to be old. It doesn't need to be pretty it just 
needs to be safe. If you have a piece that is in need of a little TLC 
don't worry. I'm planning on doing a lot of re-strapping and getting 
things as ready as I can for the folks that are over there giving so 
much of themselves for us. And as soon as I have a box full it will get 
fixed (if need be) and shipped over. 

Now I know everyone is chomping at the bitt to mail me every little 
thing they have from the lone elbow cop that has been sitting in the 
bottom of their armour bag, to that old helm that's ugly as hell but 
tough as a tank. 

Please don't. I would hate for your contribution to end up sitting 
on my porch for several weeks while I'm off saving the world. The way 
this will work out best for everyone is if you can get that piece of 
armour to Gulf Wars. Once there, anyone can look me up or drop it by my 
tent at the war. Go to the Oldenfeld encampment (I believe it's next to 
the Trimarian Royal Encampment), and as for Zack. Also in the same 
encampment anyone can look for Sir Cedric of Dorchester, (AKA Cedric the
 Just). 

I'm trying to put together 3 or 4 full sets for the folks over there
 and anything you have would be greatly appreciated. 

Also I know
 a lot of people aren't going to be able to support this request. I 
completely understand. However everyone has the ability to at least put 
pen to paper and write a little note of support for the men and women 
over there doing what too few people are willing to do so that we may 
live free. These notes will get delivered same as everything else. 

If you have never been there you just can't possibly know how much 
it will mean to them. 

Now here is the hard part. This word needs
 to get spread. So please pass this on to every list where you haven't 
seen it. I know the economic times have hit a lot of us and many people 
out there who would love the opportunity to support the troops over 
there with Armour will not be able to attend the War. Also many of them 
are not members of the Archive and we need to reach them with the word. 

Thanks for you time and your support.

      There's a thread on the Armour Archive going now about a shipment
being sent.

here is yahoo group of those that are there are/were using..

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/scainiraq/?yguid=271653444

there used to be gear there but its hard telling what has become of it some
units let guys /gals through a personal duffle in the conex before shipping
it.  the more armor the better...  I don't recall who but someone had taken
a collection of unused armor and sent it to them over yonder, but that was a
few years ago.
