''The willingness with which our young people are likely to serve in any war,no matter how justified,shall be directly proportional as to how they perceive the veterans of earlier wars were treated and appreciated by their nation'' --George Washington--
Troops Live Aid 2009 have been in talks with other organisers to stage a live aid event at Wembley Stadium to show our support to the Armed Forces.
The story so far...
Following the vision of two service personnel Tony Duffy and Mal Franks have started a long winding battle to organise a Support Our Troops live Aid concert at Wembley Stadium called, “Troops Live Aid 2009”.
Starting with a boldly passionate Facebook group: ‘SUPPORT OUR TROOPS LIVE AID EVENT @ 02 ARENA LONDON 2009’ (The O2 Arena being the original plan before realising how big this event could potentially be!), Tony Duffy was immediately in contact with Mal Franks. The pair are currently still serving in the armed forces. Between them they have served collectively in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan which enabled them to share this incredible vision.
The pair talked for days whilst the word started to spread between their friends, relatives and colleagues. Tony Duffy explained: ‘We had to get the ball rolling and Facebook was the first thing that came to my mind for sending our message to the masses!’.
Tony Duffy and Mal Franks having served collectively in Northern Ireland, Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan know how hard that everyone works. The conditions and seeing things that go well beyond the human eye should see.
Their aim is to lay a concert on at Wembley Stadium in 2009. We have a team working with us talking to Media, Radio and Performing Acts to show thier support and have it live on TV, showing to troops in Iraq, Germany, Cyprus and most of all Afghanistan. We did talk on having this concert at the 02 in London but thought it would be to small so we have gone massive due to popular demand on tickets and support on our Facebook group.
Since the Facebook group started, several key members have been appointed specific job roles thus creating a foundation team of 20 people that share the same vision. all of which are working tirelessly day and night to ensure the event is a huge success.
We love our British Troops and need to show them support, they are doing an amazing job; in risking 'their' lives to help keep 'our' lives safe.
