A friend and talented lady has asked me to post this in her behalf. Her name is Heatherhoney. She wishes to make a video of our Vets on this site. Done in a very respectful and patriotic manner. Some may have seen some of her work already as she has made several here on DH. We in the 50s respect her immensely and trust her to always be respectful. What she needs from you is your permission for her to use your picture and the information you are willing to share to also be put in the video. I have talked to Mike about this already and he, like me, trusts her and is willing to participate. So, a list of what she requires..
First of all your permission. A post in this thread will do that.
Second... Branch of service and length of service ( although the length of service is not that important if you do not wish to share )
Third... Medals or honors if you wish to share
Fourth... She will need for you to have a picture of yourself on your profile or you can post one here on this thread.
This video is only for your viewing. She will not take it anywhere else unless you allow her to. And trust me, you will not be dissapointed. A sample of what she has in mind using my sons picture.
