Join Autogeek in Supporting Operation Comfort


Autogeek.net is teaming up with the Speed Channel's "Two Guys Garage" and "Truck U" to support Operation Comfort (http://www.autogeek.net/operation-comfort.html), an organization that provides support to wounded veterans of the operations in Iraq and Afghanistan who are being treated at Brooke Army Medical Center.

Operation Comfort has been serving veterans since 2004 with programs designed to aid in recovery while providing some of the comforts of home. Projects include remodeling 11 waiting rooms at Brooke Army Medical Center for the families of wounded service members and a Tranquility room where the burn staff can take a quiet break during their work day.


Operation Comfort also sponsors a softball league and participates in sled hockey, amputee surfing, river rafting, and adaptive Nordic and alpine skiing to assist veterans with their physical recovery. Financial assistance is provided for veterans and their families in need.

Autogeek.net is pleased to participate in Operation Comfort's AutoMotivation program, which gets veterans out of the barracks and onto a ranch outside San Antonio to work on cars.


In conjunction with CarQuest, Autogeek.net is sponsoring Mike Phillips' upcoming trip to San Antonio to
teach wounded veterans paint correction skills that they can use to pursue a career in auto detailing.

Just a personal note...

This is a ongoing project that I'm really glad Autogeek is going to be a part of as I have a common bond with many of the injured soldiers. Some of you may already know this and some of you might not, but in 1986 I was involved in a boating accident in which I lost my right leg just above the knee.

I understand the challenges our wounded soldiers will have to overcome and the adjustments they'll have to make as they transition back into society. I count it a privilege to help in any way I can and look forward to meeting and working with everyone involved with Operation Comfort.

I agree. My husband is a vet and we wholeheartedly support veterans especially those who give their life or health to defend our freedom.
