Robby Gordon, NASCAR Sprint Cup Series™ driver, will visit soldiers assigned to the Warrior in Transition Unit (WTU) at Fort Lee, VA on behalf of Operation Homefront Thursday, September 4. The visit coincides with Jim Beam’s efforts to help increase awareness of Operation Homefront, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing emergency assistance and morale to U.S. troops and their families. Additionally, the No. 7 Jim Beam Dodge will sport a special red, white and blue paint scheme featuring Operation Homefront under the lights at Richmond International Raceway.

"It is rewarding to be associated with Jim Beam, who supports organizations that represent the stuff inside," said Gordon. "Operation Homefront’s dedication to helping troops and their families is amazing. I’m really excited about visiting our brave men and women and I’m honored to help raise awareness of Operation Homefront by having them on our race car at Richmond."

Has anyone heard where the U.S. Army sponsorship was going to end up next year... supporting the troops with Jim Beam is a good way to open the eyes of a potential military sponsorship, even if it's only part time...
