About a year ago, I discovered Any Soldier http://www.anysoldier.com/ a website where one can find a way to “give back” and provide something special to those in our US military who are deployed away from their loved ones and defending the freedoms we enjoy here in the United States.
I created a rather large package that I sent to a unit of the 82d Airborne Division to help them reach back to those they love and express their sentiments of this time of year. Perhaps you might be a lucky one to receive something from that package.

I spent two “wonderful” days on Post – Fort Myer, VA sharing the products of my photography with the fine FMMC community… traffic was brisk and I was happy with the results of the two day event. It complemented the event on Friday at the National Guard Readiness Center. There was a great receptiveness to the work I’m doing in military heraldry and photographing the final honors at Arlington National Cemetery.

It’s been a busy week, very busy! As the holiday season kicks into high gear, I’ve polished off the graphic design hat and taken off the photography one for now. The outcome has been a flurry of results that highlight the richness and splendor of heraldry of the US Army – 3d Infantry Regiment “THE OLD GUARD”, Special Forces, Airborne, and more, the OSS Society.
I’ve included a new slideshow highlighting the dozens of cards that are now available. There are flyers that are available to get your cards before Thanksgiving… Personalized even with your name on the front…

After studying for several years, I do believe that the United States military has a wonderful heritage and their heraldry is outstanding! For the past several years it has been an ongoing study of the crests, the patches, the badges, and the regimental colors that adorn the United States military.
While attending the Special Forces Association reunion in Fayetteville, NC it was an opportune time to introduce the distinctive line of military notecards that have continued to expand beyond the special forces to other Army units first among the Airborne, then onto the Cavalry and other infantry units. (I added the OSS Society and US Army’s 3d Infantry Regiment – “The Old Guard” as 2006 continued to march on and I photographed their reunions in September of 2006.)
Complimenting these distinctive notecards has been a set of Christmas Cards that announce the greetings of the season. The main page has a sample of the one of the four that I designed for the OSS Society. I’ve also had a complementary set for the US Special Forces and “The Old Guard”. Next on the list will probably be the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions.
It is a nice way to promote the history and pride of the military that has done so much for the United States of America.
