Vamping for Veterans

Ask a WWII vet if he remembers PIN-UPS and first you will get a smile, then a resounding "YES!" Well those days are gone ... or are they?

This charming lass has put out a calendar to be sent to hospitalized vets, wounded warriors and to boost the morale of troops everywhere. Each of the "Pin-Ups" are a nostalgic look at Pin-Ups from WWII. Betty Gable, eat your heart out.

In an e-mail from Gina she states:

I hope that you will find this project of interest to your readers...Please visit my website at : www.PinUpsforVets.com and go to "In the Field" to see all the Vets and troops with the calendar. You can go to "behind the project" to learn some more about it !

I am the blonde, brunette, redhead, and black-haired model in all the photos. This is a one-woman project, but people think that there are different pin-up models in the calendar. The calendar tries to capture some of the nostalgia of the 1940's pin-up photos.

I am hoping your readers will want to purchase my calendars & posters for my visits to the Wounded Warriors and also donate the calendars & posters for the many troop requests and the requests from homeless Veterans shelters I receive !

The proceeds from the 2008 "Pin-Ups For Vets" calendar will benefit a polytrauma center at a Veterans Hospital. This center treats multiple injuries from brain injury to amputations to post-traumatic stress syndrome and many more injuries sustained by our Wounded Warriors.

Thank you so much for your consideration of this project. I am deeply indebted to the bloggers who have posted my project's website, so that I can bring more donated calendars and posters on my visits to the ill and injured Veterans. We cannot forget our brave heroes !

With much appreciation....Gina Elise
