According to an email sent to FIREFLYFANS.NET from the staff at 'Firefly DVDs to the Troops,' money raised to purchase 120 DVDs for US troops overseas has now cracked the $2000 mark. While about $400 more is needed to purchase the DVDs themselves, more funds are needed to purchase the necessary mailing pouches and labels required to send the DVDs on their way.

If you would like to contribute to the fund, you can go here for more info:

Actually, we should be giving the DVD's to Iraqi's. Then they would watch TV instead of fight back.

Hi all! Been a while since I posted, but thought I'd let you all know how I've done my part for Firefly AND for the troops overseas!

I'm a civilian contractor for the US Army, currently stationed in Kuwait. A generous FireFlyFans member loaned me her copies of the Firefly episodes on DVD when I left back in August. I've loaned those DVDs to several soldiers at my site.

Several of them pre-ordered the boxed set for December, and when one of the PX's locally was spotted carrying the set, it sold out within a week (there were at least 20 sets there).

Just an FYI!

Zoe: I imagine that's so, sir.

DVDs for the troops is such a great idea. I think it is great to do something for the men & women overseas.

Good news indeed Scotti. Very cool of you to loan the set to the troops. Hopefully we will have a new batch of Browncoats coming back stateside soon.

Very mature.

Perhaps you would care to take that to some "anti-American"/anti-war board or something.
