The American Legion launches VetCam, a free one-on-one video conferencing – to enable you to talk face-to-face with friends and family across town or overseas; one-on-one; or with several people at a time.
Members of The American Legion, as well as members of the United States Armed Forces (active duty, Reserve and National Guard), their families and friends, are welcome to use this complimentary technology to remain connected with those people most important to you.

I think VetCam offers Posts a tremendous opportunity for community outreach. This is especially true in rural areas, where not everyone has high-speed Internet links. When I asked Qwest about DSL, their answer was "in which lifetime."
A Post can work with schools, libraries, and business to provide access to VetCam for families who don't have computers or high-speed connections.
I can think of no better Holiday outreach program.
