Freedom And The U.S. Army

The U.S. Army uses hundreds of thousands of vehicles that need to be maintained and regularly cleaned. The U.S. Army also has a clear mandate to green its operations and incorporate environmentally friendly practices wherever possible. These two factors make them a perfect fit for Freedom Waterless Carwash.

To date, the Army has ordered a total of 4,296 M-ATVs from Oshkosh valued at $2.3 billion, Oshkosh said on September 14. The U.S. Defense Department said in October 2009 it would buy more than 6,600 of a new type of Oshkosh Corp  built off-road armored trucks built for U.S. use in Afghanistan. As of October 1, production was ahead of schedule. At least 6,644 of these are earmarked for to U.S. forces in Afghanistan.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates is said to be a big fan of the larger MRAP armored vehicle, which apparently can deflect the impact of roadside bombs.

Freedom Car Waterless Cleaning vs. Poppy Growing

Now, I’m no Pentagon official nor am I a war analyst, however, I have read and heard enough to know that the average Afghan is a lot like the average American in that they simply want and need to earn a decent living to provide for their families. For many, this means poppy cultivation, a crop that earns them money on the international market.

Washing military vehicles could be another source of income.  If the U.S. has, or will soon have a fleet of more than 10,000 M-ATV vehicles in operational use in Afghanistan this year, then that’s a lot of fleet vehicle maintenance that will be required.  Freedom Waterless Carwash is ideal for desert terrains. The “Waterless” in its product name means that it uses NO water to wash a vehicle. Also, it requires some labor to wash a vehicle, much like when you wash your car in your driveway, except with Freedom, you use a couple of towelss and that’s it, no water, no electric outlet or generator needed. Just the product, perhaps its Tire Shine accompanying product and several microfiber towels. That means, where implemented properly, this could be source of gainful employment for sectors of the population.

Many of the Army vehicles have special paint that Freedom Waterless Car Wash products would not be suited for, but they have 1000′s that it would be perfect for.

The product is manufactured in the U.S.A. and the founder is a U.S. Military Veteran, having served 20 years in the Air Force.  The company also donates a percentage of proceeds to the Wounded Warrior Project.
