Military Gamers Compete for Soldiers' Angels Prizes

PASADENA, Calif., June 1 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Military support nonprofit
Soldiers' Angels is proud to announce its partnership with StripesGAMER.com to
provide deployed service members with the fun and challenge of a Call of Duty
4 online gaming tournament, "Battle for the Wii's."

Online and offline video games are one of the most common and appreciated
entertainment options for troops deployed around the world. For 10 days in
June, Soldiers' Angels will pump up the fun by providing tournament prizes for
StripesGAMER's Call of Duty 4 tournament, creating the largest prize pool
StripesGAMER has ever offered. Gamers will compete online for a grand prize of
2 Wii Systems, Wii Fit, and Guitar Hero World Tour in two concurrently-running
competitions for the deployed, as well as a stateside competition. In
addition, each competitor in the deployed category will receive a special care
package from Soldiers' Angels.

Soldiers' Angels Soldier Liaison Toby Nunn is thrilled to be a part of this
entertainment opportunity for hardworking service members. "It's directly
touching our deployed troops, another way to reach out and support our heroes.
Soldiers' Angels is very happy to be developing this connection with
StarsGAMER." Nunn points out that it also gives Soldiers' Angels the
opportunity to reach out to other companies and organizations, draws attention
to the impressive variety of assistance Soldiers' Angels offers, and
highlights the continuing need for Americans to step up and put their support
for the troops into action.
