Author Topic: Wanted some input... Stand Behind Our Troops Magnets (Read 4397 times)

cplwife · « **on:** August 04, 2006, 23:20:07 »

I am ordering magnets that say "If you can't stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them!" There have been alot of people here, officers included, that want one when they come in. I am trying to figure out how many to order and wondered what people here thought. I will mail them out to other bases if requested. Some feedback would be appreciated. There's nothing else like these around that i've seen.

Thanks

If I can't get one of those I may be forced to make one....

Or some T-Shirts with that on it.

One of the cashiers at the Canex here in Pet has said they were / are seriously considering getting some magnets in that say "This is where my 'Support Our Troops' magnet used to be before someone stole it." I know I have re-bought quite a few magnets for both my and Rachel's families that people have decided they needed more as well. It's starting to get quite irritating. I guess $3.00 cuts too far into some people's cigarette and beer money

I do wish they would make them in a sticker form - much harder to steal plus I don't have to remember to remove it from my tailgate before I take my truck through the carwash

I love the idea, and hope we can get some here in Borden! i think it would fit in nicely with my other troops magnets!

Blunt Object · « **Reply #15 on:** August 07, 2006, 09:30:02 »

Ya I'm totally down for that, GREAT idea. Now, lets see if we can get them to make a new piece of issued kit

Perhaps you can get them discounted at the Car Wash.

All the ones being ripped off cars must be clogging their drains, and they must have stacks of them.

Put me down for 2. Don't want to hijack the thread but does anyone here think the lettering on the Canex ones is too small? Could be I need glasses but can't read them from more than 10 feet away.

I have an American one given to me by a nice Vet I met at a gas station.. have been trying to get my hands on the digi camo ones but there are apparently none to be had in Ottawa! Your idea sounds cool cplwife and I'd be interested in at least 4-5 of them!

Kudos on the slogan, very amusing.

Have you got a means for receiving funds and mailing out? Am interested in a few myself but would like to know where to send the cash...
