Assuming they are genuine in the fact they will give the proceeds to the families, I think it is alright. I personally am not pleased with the text on the shirts and the obvious publicity they are seeking, but if the money does go to the families, that's OK I guess. I decided I wouldn't buy one after seeing the design and would prefer to support in other ways, but I figured I would share if anyone is interested....

Memorial Tees - Freeset USA
A noble jesture by the tee shirt company. However...
100% of the profits from these tees will benefit the families of the pilots who lost their lives in the August 14th 2013....
Rather than buying tee shirts, provide a direct dondation to the families' memorial fund, when one has been set up. That said, one hundred percent of the cash will go for their benefit rather than a portion.

Just my 2 cents worth
