Husker Dan's Army Update
As many of you may know our chapter has been very supportive of our Huskers serving in the military, especially those serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Not only has our chapter been instrumental in getting HuskerVision to send DVD’s of the games to the various units over there; we have teamed with the Red Zone who “doubles the money” of those who donate to the effort so new Husker logo clothing and other items, flags, etc. can be sent to them. Red Zone also pays the shipping.
We are now expanding that effort to include donations of new and “delicately used” Husker clothing. Please bring Husker clothing you are no longer using to the game watches in Topeka, we will see that are sent to our troops. We have learned that the soldiers in Iraq will either use them, or if the clothing is youth or children’s sizes, give them to the Iraqi children. They are a hit with the kids. Remember it gets cold there in the winter, so sweatshirts and coats work as well as t-shirts. We will see that they are sent to the various Nebraska military units. Thanks for your support!

A special “Husker Dan’s Army” account has been set up so that Husker fans everywhere can donate money to be used to send Husker items such as posters, caps, jerseys, T-shirts, sweatshirts, media guides etc. overseas.
