Default Thanks

In talking to a ex soldier/brother from our local board about the donations for Canadian troops in Afghanistan he mentioned that digital cameras weren't permitted over there but disposables were, so I called Kodak explained what I was doing and the guy said he had to call the US and he'd get back to me, well he called this morning and Kodak donated 200 disposable cameras for our troops.
He stated that it was a great cause and they were proud to help.

All I can say is damn, more than I ever expected.

Kodak, I and the members of our armed services THANK YOU

People love to complain when big companies do crappy things. Thanks for speaking up when they do the right thing. Very cool

That is awesome Martin great work.

Info on sticks for our Canadian troops would be good too.

I guess I will use some Kodak products for the next little while to support a company that gave a damn.
