BCRW Troops Support: Angel Flight (Radio Tower Remix) with Lyrics

Supporting Our Troops and their Families

Operation Homefront's Pacific Northwest Field Office serves our troops and their families in Alaska, Oregon and Washington. Before merging state operations, the Oregon Chapter of Operation Homefront was a blessing to Oregon military families and the Benton County Republican Women were honored to support the organization. Now, we urge our members and our friends to continue that support through the Pacific Northwest Field Office. God Bless our Troops!

Angel Flight (Radio Tower Remix) with Lyrics

Thank God for the men and women who protect our country... sometimes with their lives. Angel Flight aircrew bring our fallen home, with dignity, care and honor. With the exception of Air Force One, Angel Flights take precedence over all other aircraft for take off and landing. President George W. Bush, however, gave a counter order to his flight crew; "Angel Flights always go first."

Gulf War Examinations

Some of our soldiers in Iraq have been exposed to radiation and have had subsequent serious medical issues, a virulent form of leukemia and other severe cancers. For some, these illnesses were symptom-free or of seemingly little consequence for some time before a deadly diagnosis was made. For this reason, returning soldiers must request a Gulf War Examination immediately. Though it it a two-day test, it is free and lives may depend on it. Please spread the word to your family and friends. Contact Christine Strawn immediately with any info you may have. She says, "The only way we can help our soldiers is if we band together. They have fought for us and now we must fight for them." Read Oregon Guard: Troops possibly exposed to toxic chemical in Iraq, published February 11, 2009 by the Corvallis Gazette-Times.

Please visit www.iraqradiation.com, a site dedicated to the soldiers and their families who have battled these exposure related diseases and want others to understand the severity so that no soldier goes without early testing.

Remembering Andrew Rounds (22) of Lebanon, Oregon. Rest in peace young warrior.
