Bands For Freedom Foundation Inc. and Military.com Introduce Camouflage Wristbands for Troops
New camouflage wristbands can be worn by troops in fatigues out in the field
Bands For Freedom Foundation Inc. and Military.com today announced the Military.com silicone wristband. The new custom-designed camouflage wristbands are designed to bolster support for the men and women of the U.S. military and can be worn by soldiers in the field while dressed in battle fatigues, as well as by supporters here at home.
"Soldiers were wearing the normal red, white and blue Bands For Freedom while they were off duty, but when they were dressed in camouflage or out in the field, they weren't able to wear the brightly colored wristbands," said Steve Cloward, president and chief executive officer of Bands For Freedom. "We put our heads together with Military.com and created a camouflage band that soldiers can wear while they work."
Marked with the words "Support Our Troops," the Military.com wristbands were created to garner increased support for the war on terror and the troops who make sacrifices for our freedom. They are similar to those made popular by the Lance Armstrong Wear Yellow Live Strong Foundation, but resemble some of the modern hunting camouflage patterns and feature a blend of green, brown, tan and white.

Bands For Freedom and Military.com continue to support the troops by contributing all after-cost revenue from their wristband sales to the Armed Forces Relief Trust (AFRT). The Bands For Freedom Foundation Inc. has been one of the AFRT's most ardent contributors, having raised more than $100,000 for the organization.
Soldiers aren't the only ones who can wear the camouflage wristbands. Military.com is offering the bands to anyone interested in advancing the cause of freedom and supporting the U.S. troops. While being marketed mainly to the more than 4 million Military.com members, the bands are available to all. Soldiers and civilians alike can buy the bands for $1 apiece by either visiting www.bandsforfreedom.com or by calling 866-217-5595.
