The Buzz…

Teamed with T-Mobile, actress Wendy Davis from Lifetime TV’s number one series Army Wives arrived at U.S. Army’s Fort Stewart, GA to surprise a real Army wife, Kelly Sloan, with T-Mobile products and services. Davis, who plays Lt. Colonel Joan Burton, commander of 400 soldiers, wanted to help Sloan continue her generous mission in keeping the soldiers and their families connected. With her T-Mobile Blackberry and T-Mobile in-home services, Sloan now has unlimited nationwide calling services. In addition to the “Army Wives Gives Back” campaign, Lifetime, JC Penny, and Big Lots fulfilled Sloan’s wish to have care packages/gift baskets available for soldiers returning home.

Davis said, “The families of the thousands of men and women serving our nation around the globe are making incredible sacrifices here at home.” This election year, presidential candidates John McCain and Barack Obama have taken time out from the campaign trail to join Lifetime in saluting our dedicated troops and their loved ones — says Lifetime.
