NOTE FROM FISHER HOUSE FOUNDATION/OPERATION HERO MILES!

"Fisher House Foundation is delighted to be the beneficiary of this project," said Jim Weiskopf, Foundation Vice President.

"We started the Hero Miles program in early 2004 because we recognized the importance of having loved ones by ones side while recovering from grievous wounds or injury.

"In 2-1/2 years, we have provided nearly 6,000 free airline tickets to Americas heroes its wounded service members and their families.

"The proceeds from the song will help pay the airport security fees and any taxes on the tickets so they can be provided free of charge, and the visibility will let airline passengers know that they can donate frequent flyer miles to the Hero Miles program.

"We are grateful for the support."
