Contribution to America’s Fallen Heroes
When I first saw this project it touched me all over. Astonishing contribution to our Fallen Heroes!
When I first met Kevyn Major Howard I knew there was something special about him, his remarkable character, kindness and soft voice was not enough to show his gratitude and kind heart for this project. In case you don’t know who Kevyn is, he played the role of “Rafterman” in the incredible film “Full Metal Jacket”. I remember Mr. Howard saying that you never understand or pay attention to what our soldiers go through to protect the very freedom that we have until you touch this vehicle.
This 1963 Nova Memorial Race Car is dedicated to all of the fallen and living U.S. Marines of the Iraq war. And I just can’t say enough about the power that this vehicle represents and the men behind powering this vehicle around the country from state-to-state trying to gain enough sponsorships to put the vehicle in front of every single American in the United States. It’s truly a work of art, created by Kevyn Major Howard’s dream and Chuck Spiker’s expertise.
I personally had the opportunity to put my hands on this car and I watched the many tears that fell from service men and women who have served in Iraq - and it is beyond your imagination how this creation of God has impacted the lives of many U.S. service men and women. The vehicle represents the names of the fallen marines during the current Iraq conflict and it represents everything that being an American is all about. This vehicle has set in front of many people and the Fueled By The Fallen team has been dedicated to the champion vehicle for more that 3 years now - and the passion of Kevyn Major Howard has made this project more amazing than you can imagine. I urge anyone out there to just go and put your hands on it - just touch it. Because if you do - you would have contributed the greatest honor to our American Heroes.
I would also like to give major respect to the Fueled by the Fallen team. They have been committed to not giving up and they constantly keep pushing for corporate sponsorship to allow this major movement in history to tour across American and shine it’s glory among the eyes of every family and all the children to show appreciation to service men and women who put their lives on hold to make sure that ours can move forward. I personally urge that you visit Fueled by the Fallen website and show your respect to those unsung heroes and let them know that they will not be forgotten.
And to you Kevyn Major Howard :
You are a kind, generous and honorable figure that will make an impression on this country that will forever live in history. I highly respect your efforts in all that you attempt and wish the very best for your Fueled By The Fallen Team. I think I speak for the most of us when I say, “I truly respect what you have done for this country and may God bless you and your relentless team on the road to sponsorships and spreading this wonderful gift that you have to offer to this country.”
Once again I urge everyone to go to the website and support this wonderful project. And to the service men and women -
“Thank you for the wonderful commitment that you have given this country - Your dedication will never be forgotten.”
