Bagram Air Base, Afghanistan

T-Shirts for Troops has been growing over the past few months. The Fire Departments of Nutley, Belleville, Morristown, West Orange & Clifton have send shirts to the soldiers or are in the midst of planning to send shirts.

T-Shirts for Troops is now looking to raise funds to send shirts to Fr. Sean O'Brien a Lt. Commander in the US Naval Reserves who has been deployed to Bagram in Afghanistan. This is near Bagram Air Base. Bagram has over 7,000 multinational armed services working together in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Many of the Troops are in the 10th Mountain Division and the 82nd Airborne Division.

Fr. Sean recently sent us some pictures of his visit to the Bagram Air Base Fire Department. The Fire Department is run by civilians employed by Kellogg, Brown and Root. The firefighters work to secure the landing strip, provide fire protection and safety when planes land, deliver supplies & take off.

Fr. Sean recently sent an email discussing the impact T-shirts for Troops has made with his soldiers.

New style Operation Enduring Freedom Afghan shirts!

I'm excited to see what you come up with.

T shirts are huge here.

The last of the 10th guys are getting
ready to return home now.

I see your t shirts all over the base.

We hope to raise enough funds to send T-shirts to Fr. Sean and his Troops.
