A Viewfinder in Afganistan

[Bill McInnes - D37 Rep]

As some of you know my son is in the Army and was scheduled to go to Afghanistan at some point.
Well he is there now. It took over 10 days to get him to his final destination but he is there.
Many of you have expressed the desire to want to know his mailing address once it is finalized.

PFC McInnes, Tyson
A-CO 1-187 3rd BCT 101ABN
FOB BORIS
APO AE09311

He has already been using the sticker packet that the club donated and will need more.
The Army has sent a list of items that the solders could use but Ty would love to have old Cycle news,
Dirt bike magazines as well as cards and letters. He has already made contact with others that know of
off roading and would love to see these as well.

That's all I have for now I will post other info as soon as I can.

Hope all goes well for him. I already approved him on the board this morning so he must have internet access over there. I will send him this months newsletter and the upcoming months as well.

Thanks Chris
His e-mail is rebelracer23@yahoo.com

[Bob Johnson - D37 Rep]

I have many monthly magazines and weekly news stuff, and would be willing to send them over to the troops.
Hope for the best for your son and his friends.

You keep your head down Ty.

Your Dad is so proud of you, he tells me all about what you are doing and how well you are doing in the army. I will collect my Dirt Rider and Hot Rod Magazines, etc. and send them to you soon.

As Chris said, THANK YOU for defending our freedom.
