Dear Friends,
I would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy new year. We wish you much happiness, great health, and prosperity in 2010. 
We made great strides last year in getting our blog up at Stand Up America, and we were able to provide much assistance to our troops overseas fighting for our freedom and their families whom are making great sacrifices on our behalf through the Scott Vallely Soldiers Memorial Fund. Our readership is growing by leaps and bounds, and your submissions are always welcome. Please re-join, re-double efforts for 2010 with us.
In 2010, we plan to not only continue these efforts, but to expand them for our troops and their families. Also, through efforts in educating the public through commentary and factual articles on the blog about our nation and how we proceed next.
It is with great pleasure and deep pride that we thank our donors who have given so generously. We ask that you consider us again with your hard earned dollars through your donations. We are well aware of the plight our failed economy and government has placed upon each of us, but with your help, your efforts, and your generosity, we can make a difference.
Please feel free to distribute this newsletter to your friends and acquaintances.
Sincerely, and respectfully yours,
Paul E. Vallely (MG US Army Retired)
