United We Roll World Tour Show Tuesday, June 15, 2010

United We Roll World Tour Show
Stardust Radio www.stardustradio.com
Tuesday 6/15/10 2:00pm – 4:00pm Central (Live)
Wednesday 6/16/10 6:30pm – 8:30pm Central (Repeat)
Welcome Stardust Listeners and thank you for joining us on United We Roll this Tuesday, the 8th day of June, 2010 as we take time to honor those who serve our country and who protect our freedom!!
Our annual Flag Day fell on Monday, June 14th. I hope we were all able to put our flags out in front of our houses, businesses and wherever possible to show our pride of country and our appreciation to be Americans, free only by the gift of freedom from those who serve to protect it every day in locations from around the world. I am putting a list of dates when the flag should be flown - though everyday sounds good to me, weather and lighting permitting. And I am also including the flag ettiquette which will probably answer any questions about things like can I leave my flag out at night and so on.
Now, on to the show - We have two very in depth visits with 4 of our special guests who are currently serving in Iraq and Kyrgzystan to share with you all. The show will stay within our normal 2 hour period, ending at 4:00pm. Remember, if you are not able to stay with us through the show this afternoon, it will repeat again tomorrow evening, Wednesday, June 16th at 6:30pm Central. In addition, an MP3 copy will be placed on our show archive site for listening and downloading. You can reach our archive site at www.stardustradio.info or on the United We Roll page at www.stardustradio.com.
(2:09pm) During our first visit today, we will be talking with two members of the 332nd EOSS (that is Expeditionary Operations Support Squadron)/Weather Flight. Joining us are Weather Flight Commander Maj Eric Christensen and SSG Greg Spiker who are professionals in the weather arena and will explain so many interesting facets of what makes the weather act the way it does and much more. We will learn the meaning of the words Shamal, Haboob and Verga and how they can effect pilots as well as troops on the ground.
(3:03pm) During our next visit, we will be talking with some deployed members who are busy taking care of those with whom they serve. SSG Ryan Rubino and SSG Jeremy McDonnell are currently deployed with the 376th EMDG (that is Expeditionary Medical Group) where they provide a very wide range of medical care from sports injuries, allergies which are very high there, cardiac issues and taking care of some of our wounded as they travel through on their way for more treatment and/or to home. There is so much to talk about in this visit and you will clearly hear the love and concern these two special young men have for those in their care. I find it comforting to know that they and others like them are there to help our loved ones if needed. I hope you all do, too.
Ladies & Gentlemen, we wish to thank all of you for joining us today and we hope that you will be with us again next week when we will have more great visits from our Heroes of Freedom.
Our hearts and prayers go out to all of our military members, families, Veterans and to all of our first responders & their families - everyone who puts their lives on hold and on the line for us and our families.
We would like to remind our Veterans, active duty members, family members and anyone who is interested in health and legislative issues that affect those who protect our freedom to tune in to our other broadcasts – OFFE with Gene Simes and Jere Berry at 8pm Central on Tuesday nights and also with Rick Townsend and Firebase Network Sundays at 6:00pm Central.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL & MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA!
