Learn about Bill 3793 introduced the Veterans Guaranteed Bonus Act, H.R. 3793, after the bipartisan Commission on Care for America’s Returning Wounded Warriors, co-chaired by former Senator Bob Dole and former Secretary of Health and Human Services Donna Shalala, uncovered a Department of Defense rule that unfairly penalized wounded soldiers by prohibiting them from receiving their full enlistment bonuses.

What is Operation Pittsburgh Pride?

Operation Pittsburgh Pride is a Carnegie based non-profit organization that has been established to show our hometown support to our active service members serving in the Middle East during this difficult time. We need YOUR help, to support these brave men and women!

Our count of "care packages" mailed to the middle East so far is 4800!!!

Thank you for showing your PITTSBURGH PRIDE in our American Soldiers!

The Soldiers of Army, 1st Calvary 3rd Brigade, 1-12 Bravo Company, of which our Son is a member, recently deployed to Baghdad, Iraq, joining thousands of our other brave service members already serving in the Middle East.

We have learned that our soldiers do not have access to many of the things we take for granted here in America.  We call them ‘Sniffle items”, common everyday things like band-aids, vitamins, soap and even towels and blankets are just not available in Iraq.  In addition, western books, magazines and music that would so help boost the moral of the troops that are far from home are also needed. 

We are discovering that folks from all over are interested in supporting Operation Pittsburgh Pride. That is why we have put up this Website to allow us to reach across the Internet so other folks can help. We are seeing a snowball of donations pouring in for our troops.

Thank you on behalf of our soldiers

Best regards,
Operation Pittsburgh Pride
Susan Wardezak, Chairwoman
