Since tours in Iraq and the "Stan" I've had to buy 2 sets of Firefly the series and Serenity. Seems my troops have worn out my DVD's! LOL. No problem more sales means maybe somday they'll refit Serenity and clear her to fly again.....One can hope right?
Take care fellow browncoats.

I've seen a few sets heading abroad and it is the greatest reward to know they are keeping folks entertained while away from home. Heard from several it was one of the little things keeping them grounded while in country.

Let us know of any Browncoat care packages we can put together.


Gots mad skillz, loves playing with matches.

biggestdamnhero,

Thank you.

Eeek, if they are wearing out the DVDs, these don't stand a chance.


Serenity: Better Days comics (Issue #1 Due Out in March 12 2008)

Did you realize the Serenity: Better Days Comic covers fit together to form one picture?

I ordered an extra Serenity Better Days for a co-worker's brother in Iraq. Have to put it in plastic with a white board.

Already sent him Firefly/Serenity CE/SLiTHER in other care packages his sister sent.

What do you think about Waitress? No comedy/romance even if Nathan is in it?. Or just go with White Noise: The Light with an note to be sure to watch the tour of the haunted mental asylum.

Welcome aboard and welcome home, BDH. You're
#30680 here. That's a lotta 'coats.
Please sample these luscious big strawberries we
reserve for new crew, and wash 'em down with a
mug of Mudder's -- the finest in the Verse.

I, too, thank you for your service, and for
helping to spread the FF love across the planet.

FollowMal needs to know that someone needs a virtual Browncoat.

If she doesn't show up soon, someone will raid the closet for you. Nicely.

The way I see it, if the Troops love and want more Firefly and FOX won't give it to them, then FOX doesn't support the Troops!

Why don't you support the Troops FOX? Why do you hate America?

Maybe we should start a drive to get Firefly DVDs to the troops. Sounds like a noble reason to buy more Firefly doesn't it?
