Thanks to each of you for your hard work and for contributing to the Freedom Pen Program. Every pen shipped will make a difference to one of our sons and daughters in harms way. We have literally thousands of pens to go this year and are receiving pens almost every day. The first shipment will be delivered to the Army on Monday Febuary 23, 2004 and I expect that these pens will be a real surprise to the members of our military who receive them.

Thanks Again!

Here is a picture of 362 pens taken on a table top in my shop office, the ten Liberty pens are going to shipped separate. The total will increase by Monday afternoon as we will most likely receive a few more pens in the mail Monday and I will have a few of my own to include this weekend.

WOW!

Thanks to everyone who was able to get their pens in this first shipment. This has been a great effort but please keep those wood lathes spinning we have a long way to go :)
