Support out troops from WWII
A friend forwarded this so i thought i would pass it on, watch the movie trailer at the end click on the link.
Keith Leibovitz's youngest nephew is working on a project for WW II veterans. And enclosed is a trailer. They are trying to get 50000 views before Memorial Day. It is pretty poignant and is one of Seth's projects. Kindly forward so more can view it. You need to view the whole thing to be counted, it's only 2 min long. Seth has been working on a full-length feature documentary about a program to honor WWII vets and has now released a trailer, and it would really help out if you watched it in full, and spread it around to other folks who would enjoy it. Working on this has been a very emotional experience, because the story is so, so powerful. I think you'll agree. Show Your Thanks to World War II Vets by Watching This 2-min Video | Show Your Thanks to World War II Veterans Before It's Too Late! | Causes

Earl Morse, one of the guys who started this in Enon, Ohio, was a PE in my doctor's office. They started out with volunteers flying a small plane about the size of a King Air. I volunteered to be an escort in about the second year. They were chartering 100 seat airplanes by then. Escorts had to buy our own tickets and we each had 5 guys to watch over. I arrived at the airport at something like 4 AM and we started getting everyone organized. We got to Washington about 10, got everyone on buses, drove to the memorial and just hung around while the guys looked and talked. Then we had lunch and got back on the plane. We got back to Ohio and got everyone into their rides home by about 6. It was a heck of a long day, but some of those guys were great to hang around. I don't know what happened to Earl. I don't see him mentioned in any of the promotions of the program these days.
