We have a less than one month and counting to get the word out all across this great land and into every community in the United States of America .
If you forward this email to least 11 people and each of those people do the same ... you get the idea.
THE PROGRAM:
On Fr ida y, September 11th, 2009, an American flag should be displayed outside every home, apartment, office, and store in the United States. Every individual should make it their duty to display an
American flag on this eighth anniversary of one of our country's worst tragedies. We do this to honor those who lost their lives on 9/11, their families, friends and loved ones who continue to endure the pain, and those who today are fighting at home and abroad to preserve our cherished freedoms.
In the days, weeks and months following 9/11, our country was bathed in American flags as citizens mourned the incredible losses and stood shoulder-to-shoulder against terrorism. Sadly, those flags have all but disappeared. Our pat riotism pulled us through some tough times and it shouldn't take another attack to galvanize us in sol ida rity. Our American flag is the fabric of our country and together we can
prevail over terrorism of all kinds

1,200 veterans wrongly told they got fatal disease
By P.J. DICKERSCHEID, Associated Press Writer P.j. Dickerscheid, Associated Press Writer – Mon Aug 24,
CHARLESTON, W.Va. – At least 1,200 veterans across the country have been mistakenly told by the Veterans Administration that they suffer from a fatal neurological disease.
One of the leaders of a Gulf War veterans group says panicked veterans from Alabama, Florida, Kansas, North Carolina, West Virginia and Wyoming have contacted the group about the error.
Denise Nichols, the vice president of the National Gulf War Resource Center, says the VA is blaming a coding error for the mistake.
Letters dated Aug. 12 were intended to notify veterans who have Lou Gehrig's disease of disability benefits available to them.
Calls to the VA were not immediately returned Monday.
Lou Gehrig's disease, or ALS, is a rapidly progressive disease that attacks the nerve cells responsible for controlling voluntary muscles.
