Marines calendar to aid wounded comrades

RANCHO SANTA FE – Creative ideas usually come to Jean Hamerslag late at night, but recently one arose during a fitness workout.

While training with instructor Sgt. Rudy Reyes, Hamerslag realized she could raise funds for Freedom is Not Free by producing a 2007 calendar featuring elite reconnaissance Marines.

Hamerslag is a board member of the nonpartisan and nonprofit Freedom is Not Free, which was founded last year to aid wounded U.S. troops and their families.

Reyes' photograph is on the cover and the June page of the calendar, “America's Heroes, Reconnaissance Marines.”

The group raises and distributes funds to U.S. military personnel in need through an unusual method: Its Purple Heart Advisory Committee determines where funds should go. The committee includes Purple Heart recipients, survivors of Purple Heart recipients and wounded Marines who are on active duty. All of money raised is given out, Hamerslag said. Board members volunteer their time and give their own funds to keep the group running, she said.

The calendar will be available at Barnes & Noble Booksellers and online at www.freedomisnotfree.com.
