Tankerbabe asked that I post this story about a retired soldier who needs a free wardrobe that CQ is offering as a prize in this contest<\/a>. The potential winner writes;<\/p>\n

Earlier this year, I \u201cretired\u201d from the National Guard, after serving for 21 years. During the last eight of those years I was full time, which meant I wore the same thing every day, the uniform of the United States Army. During the last four of those eight years I was mobilized as part of a mission that helped wounded Soldiers, which I can only describe as, the most humbling job I have ever had. After I left the military I struggled with find a good job, but I have finally found it, working at a Veteran\u2019s hospital, helping veterans. My biggest struggle is figuring out what to wear each morning, I have small wardrobe of appropriate work clothes, but I could use more. More importantly I could the consultation so that I could regain the confidence I had while wearing the uniform of the United States Army, as I do my part to take care of veterans. Thanks for reading this. Brian<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I don’t know how much help you guys are going to be to this poor guy – you can’t click<\/a> my Google ads to save your lives, you couldn’t click the link<\/a> to the Weblog Awards last year, so I’m pretty sure you won’t click this link to vote for Brian<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I remember when I had to get a real job and shopped for a suit with two pairs of pants after retiring from the Army and spending a year in college, so I know how Brian feels. But I guess you guys would let him go to work in rags all because you don’t like to click<\/a>. <\/p>\n

I know this asking too much, but you can vote for Brian<\/a> twice every day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
