AT&T, The Navy Exchange, and Cell Phones for Soldiers celebrated Fleet Week 2008 with members of the Navy, Marines, and Coast Guard in New York City last Thursday. The groups donated 7,000 land- and sea- based prepaid phone cards to the members of the U.S. Armed Forces in town for Fleet Week NYC.

AT&T representatives distributed some of those phone cards to U.S. sailors and marines on the flight deck of the USS Kearsarge on May 22, 2008. For video of the event, visit http://youtube.com/watch?v=ZObkecv1akA

In addition, Cell Phones for Soldiers founders Brittany and Robbie Bergquist appeared on CBS’ “The Early Show” to discuss their efforts. Video of that exchange is available at http://youtube.com/watch?v=55cdnz4wKGY
