Pro vs. GI Joe aims to do something no other morale boosting organization does: provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to our military men and women serving all over the world. Our mission is to set up real-time video game competitions between professional athletes and troops stationed overseas via the Internet using PlayStation, Xbox Live and the WII.

Pro vs. GI Joe recognizes this similarity and is pitting the playing field against the battlefield in what we believe is the must-see" battle in professional sports!

Ultimately, the goal is to have fun and make these competitions more than a game; they are events! The troops are surrounded by their battle buddies and the athletes by their teammates as they go head-to-head, talking trash through headphones and webcam, despite the 8,000 miles distance!

I created "Pros vs. GI Joes" with my wife, who is a SSG in the US Army and currently serving her second tour in Iraq, for the simple reason of wanting to give a little something to our troops that THEY can only get BECAUSE they are over in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait and anywhere overseas away from there families fighting for us.

I truly believe that there are those who serve our country and those that choose not to for whatever reason (mine being that I'm just not good with taking orders), but those who do fall into the catagory with me owe it to my wife and the rest of our Armed Forces to do whatever we can to Support them!

That's where I stand - and I'm hoping I will have a long line behind me that feels the same way!
