Operation Tribute to Freedom offers helpThe following informaition was sent to me from Operation
Tribute To Freedom. This is an excellent opportunity for Amateur Radio
Clubs and Operators to promote our hobby. Operation Tribute to Freedom is a Department of the Army program that connects Soldiers back from Iraq and Afghanistan with their local communities through speaking and recognition events. The program is 100 percent voluntary and focuses on matching Soldiers with opportunities in their local areas. Last year, OTF had the privilege of working with several Amateur Radio clubs during the annual Amateur Radio Military Appreciation Day in May. OTF identified local Soldiers to participate on location with these clubs. Soldiers worked the booths, speaking to members of the general public that stopped by and helping their community members thank the troops via radio. This year, OTF is happy to be continuing its strong relationship with Amateur Radio clubs, and our goal is to enhance ARMAD 2007 by sending Soldiers to even more locations. If you are interested in having a Soldier participate in your club's ARMAD activities, please contact Meghan Moran at 202-828-5068 or meghan.moran@fleishman.com. For more information on the Operation Tribute to Freedom program, please visit www.army.mil/OTF or see the attached "info sheet." For more information about ARMAD or OTF visit www.armad.net. Working together we can provide a great public service, and promote Amateur Radio. Get your Club involved.
