This is one of the greatest things I have even seen the USO do. Its a program where a soldier reads a childerns book and its filmed during the process. The USO then sends the book and the video to the his or her kids so they have dad or mom reading them a story. Unfortunatly for many of these kids it will be the last thing they ever get from that parent and it will be something to keep for the rest of thier life.

A local kid is making his project to become an Eagle Scout to get 1800 books for this project. Help me help him blow away his goal.

Awesome project.
My son is currently a life scout and will be getting into his project next year.
Scouting is a great program.

Awsome. I am an Eagle Scout and I worked for the BSA for a time. It is definitely a good program.
