The American Legion Department of Tennessee purchased sixteen webcam laptop computers and mailed them to the Pat Tillman USO Center in Afghanistan for the purpose of having them placed and utilized by the hospitalized military personnel serving in there. The American Legion state commander, Earl Watson realized how important it was that the wounded soldiers needed to be visually in touch with his/her family. By the usage of the webcams the hope is to improve morale on both ends, here at home and in Afghanistan. State Commander Earl Watson issued a challenge to The American Legion Tennessee Family; the ten American Legion Districts, The American Legion Auxiliary, The Sons of The American Legion and the Legion Riders. The challenge was quickly met with donations. Dell was contacted and sixteen computers with webcams were built and were quickly on their way to Afghanistan.

Mike Hammer, Department of Tennessee Adjutant commented, "There is no place like home at Christmas and the sixteen web cam computers donated by the Legion Family in Tennessee will hopefully allow the wounded veterans in Afghanistan to see and speak to their loved ones."
