"Thank
you for supporting the Resolve to Win March. God Bless our
Troops and God Bless America."
Dennis McCool
MAJ, US Army (R)
"Resolve
to Win"
|
Three retired
Army officers, recently returned from Iraq and others will be marching
from the SC/NC Stateline and ending at the U.S. Capitol (1 Mar to
16 Mar 2008). Dennis McCool, Carl Heerup and Marc Breslow will be
walking 400 miles in an event called "Resolve
To Win".
The reason is to show support for the Troops and the Mission of
the Troops. The purpose is to demonstrate resolve to do a difficult
task and to create a dialogue about our National Will to win. It's
not political, nor is it to support any particular party. This is
an endorsement of General Petraeus's leadership and the skill, talent
and sacrifice of our Troops to win in Iraq.
Our
troops need to know we remember them but showing our Patriotism,
that we care and support them and that they are and will not be
forgotten.
For more information, please visit the Resolve
to Win website.
