Glad to hear everyone is on the mend.



To all - working on getting samples of pink to pick from.



So what charity if not the aforementioned ?

All ––



A little searching found this story on Milspouse.com regarding a military wife who started "Warrior Angels" for Breast Cancer when diagnosed during husband's deployment to Iraq.



They put together a little kit... well, read the story.  Operating out of Ft. Bragg and others.



Aside from helping a little somewhat unknown specialty operation with a sudden boost (who wouldn't see something like this coming and would appreciate the LT tie-in), I think it would seem fitting to include the actual Dillo in their little kits as well?



Just throwin' it out there –– a little Google searchin'.

This looks like a great place where LT and its supporters can still help our troops and their families.

Wouldn't do pink for these but,

Wounded Warrior's Project
Special Operator's Warrior Foundation

(proceeds from the pens I made recently went to the later)

In for a bunch as well. To date the organization my wife and I are a part of has raised over $39k toward Suzan G Komen. These would fly.

Dont take any of this the wrong way, but every woman can get breast cancer. Not just .mil wives.



If we're going to support the fight against breast cancer specifically, lets donate the proceeds to a group that is fighting the hardest for the longest to support EVERYONE. SGK, Relay for Life, etc.

All the proceeds don't have to go to just one group.  It could be similar to how the Pack Larue Dillo supported 2 groups.

I suspect that the reason most of the people are liking the site linked is due to LaRue being very pro military and that site supports military wives.

I don't think that anyone is choosing to ignore the other women and men that are affected by breast cancer.

This. I'm in regardless. Just seems to fit the "tradition" of LaRue's giving and direct tie-in to their business. There are probably others.



Always difficult to help everyone... I tend to look for best "fit". It's hard to stand for everyone –– so if I have to choose, I choose to stand for those who stand for us.



The response to this is great thus far, keep it going!
