Leesville, La. -

Are your used DVD's becoming a pain in your neck?
If so, chiropractor William P. Wilkerson, III, of Leesville Family Chiropractic, has a suggestion. Wilkerson is appealing to patriotic Americans to donate their new and used DVDs, which will then be shipped to America’s fighting men and women overseas. Operation DVD provides safe entertainment for troops. Recreation can be a dangerous activity for soldiers stationed in war zones because of snipers, land mines and terrorist activity.
Libraries of DVDs are being established at all bases, most of which have a reinforced recreation room equipped with a television and DVD player. The goal is to ultimately have a selection of 200 to 250 titles in rotation at each base.  All films are acceptable, but DVDs of a sensitive nature (such as those portraying the killing of Muslims) are removed. Children's movies are distributed stateside through the Family Readiness Group(s) of the National Guard to the children of families with a parent currently serving.
Wilkerson, a former United States Marine, is dedicated to giving back to the local Fort Polk Home of the Hero’s soldiers, he said. Though Tri–Care military insurance currently does not cover chiropractic care, over the next 45 days anyone who brings in two or more new or used DVDs gets a free no-obligation consultation and SEMG computerized exam with the doctor, a service normally offered at a cost of  $150.
If you don't need chiropractic care, you can still drop off your DVDs.
