How Do I Get A Kit? [Donate?] Folks: Please remember that you are REQUESTING, not ordering, an upgrade kit. If you're requesting replacement pads, please include exactly WHY you need your GI pads replaced.
If others in your unit need the helmet
upgrade, send us the number needed (there is a field for this in the
form) and a person's name and address to
receive/distribute rather than sending multiple requests, please.
Even with some rather large donations recently, we have had far more requests than
funds available to provide helmet upgrade kits to all who ask. Deployment of
reserve units, especially, have tasked us to the max. With our supporters, we
have distributed over 37,000 upgrade kits to our great troops. We have established a 'waiting list' for those asking
for the helmet upgrade. Where possible, we send 'bulk' supplies of the kits to senior members (usually NCO's) of units. The men in charge of assigning
duties are the best qualified to distribute the kits to those most likely to
encounter the IED's and other form of blasts being hurled the way of our troops
day in and day out. Some enterprising troops have mobilized
friends, family, businesses to make 'dedicated' contributions to ensure they,
their unit or their service branch receive the helmet upgrades. We
appreciate that most families who make a 'dedicated' contribution add whatever
they can afford to help us provide the kits for troopers other than their own.
We honor all 'dedicated' donations.
If you have loved ones who need a helmet upgrade kit for
their PASGT or Marine LWH or simply are looking for a way to help,
