Dale Earnhardt Jr in his No. 88 National Guard will be driving a special Citizen Soldier paint scheme in the NASCAR Sprint All-Star Race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway. 3 Doors Down dedicated a song they wrote for National Guard Citizen-Soldiers; NG Soldiers are Citizen in time of peace - Soldiers in time of need. Brad Arnold, lead singer from 3DD, lives in Jackson, Mississippi and during Hurricane Katrina saw first hand how the 50,000 activated National Guard Soldiers were providing disaster relief by saving lives and providing medical care. This helped inspire him to write the song Citizen-Soldier as a tribute to these local Hometown Heroes. As a National Guard Citizen-Soldier you are allowed to live in your local community, working or going to school, but in times of need can be activated to support your local community or defend the constitution. This Special Paint Schemed car - 3 Doors Down/National Guard Citizen-Soldier car, which Dale Earnhardt Jr will drive during the 2008 All-Star race, will be used as a tribute to honor the men and women of the Army National Guard. Dale Jr wanted to run a car that looked like the Grey Ghost that Buddy Baker drove. The majority of the design work was done by Jim Gravlin at Hendrick Motorsports.Most Recent Customer ReviewsDate : 2009-03-22 Summary : Great collectible... This was a Christmas gift for my husband. I was impressed at the packaging, you could tell it was packed with care. The movable parts are cool. I was a bit disappointed that you could not see the ghosted soldiers in the paint job that was on the actual car. Also the "paint" had a couple little flaws in it which I was not expecting at this price point. Overall great product.   |
