Operation Homelink

Hey everyone,

I hope you have already heard about Operation Homelink but if you haven’t then they will be here next week with 100 refurbished computers to give to spouses and parents of the deployed to aid in the communication process. Here are the details:

Official date, time, and location.

8 December 2005
Family Support Center, McGuire AFB (Bldg 3011)
Families must show at 1030.


We have well over 100 in need so the following is the criteria or priority selection process according to Operation Homelink HQ.


Receiving members must be E1- E5:

Currently deployed, must be less than half way through the deployment.

Deploying within 90 days outside of the US

(I think these two categories will complete the list for the computers but if it goes further then)

Deploying within 120 days

Eligible family members are spouses or parents. The computers are not for the military member.


As you can see if you are just receiving this email you must work quickly to have your members families added to the list. My cutoff is Friday December 2nd at noon. Please compile a complete list of your eligible members with their name, rank, phone number, and deployment status and send it to me ASAP. Include your information as a POC in case I have difficulty contacting a family. Also if you have members receiving computers, plan on joining us on the 8th and invite your Unit / Squadron commanders to attend the event. The more publicity the event has the more computers NJ military members may receive in future donations. Operation Homelink hopes to return to NJ with more computers within a year of this date so please keep that in mind.

Hopefully this answers all your questions, if not feel free to call me.
I will send you all a list of the recipients for the donation by COB Friday December 2nd and I will try to notify all the families that same day. I may be working on Saturday but they will be notified before Monday.
