I received an email from my friend and former partner at HRP, COgirl, who has asked me to help get out the word to our readers to see if you will send some money over to Operation A/C.

If you saw the post yesterday about Michael Yon’s latest report you saw that it is extremely hot in Iraq and our troops are doing anything they can to stay as cool as is possible.

From Hang Right Politics and other blogs is a request to give money to this organization via Pay Pal to buy air conditioners for our men and women in this sweltering heat.

The following quote is from Black Five, a mil blog.

On Friday, June 22nd we will begin taking sign-ups from S4s (unit supply personnel) and entire deployed units who are in need of the air conditioners. We already have many units on the ground asking, and our inbox is stuffed with several hundred emails. I asked the people who run this war to help me and they flat out told me, “NO!”(They’re very good at that.)

The question is will you help us do this again? We got those 9,400 air conditioners to our troops in the past by the Grace of God and supporters who believed in us. We know it will once again happen that way this time around.

So we are asking for your financial support. You can go to www.operationac.com and donate by clicking the PayPal button. Or you can send us a check—we are a 501(c)3 non-profit company and our federal tax ID is 02-0699201.

Republican or Democrat, liberal or conservative, these are American men and women suffering in the heat of Iraq. See what you can do by going to Operation A/C and clicking on the Pay Pal button to help get as many air conditioners as possible to these great people.

My husband has me on a tight budget now, but he agreed this is a worthy cause and we have made a donation. Click the Pay Pal link on the top right corner of the Operation A/C site.
