Dear Teddy Bear Lover,
It is with deep respect for the people whose professions our bears represent that we offer this
online bear store to you, in the hope that it will make life a little more "bearable." Since the in-
troduction of Bear Forces of America at Robinson Barracks PX in Stuttgart, West Germany in
the winter of 1987, BFA's have stepped into the spotlight all around the world.
For example, in the news coverage of Gen. Schwartzkopf at his Desert Storm welcome home
victory celebration, he was seen receiving a BFA desert bear. These Bears were featured in
local news coverage across the land as the troops returned home. And remember Newsweek's
coverage of the discovery of the BFA P.O.W.'s in Gen Noriega's underground bunker when he
was captured?
25,000 BFA's made the airlift to Saudi Arabia to meet a half million of our American Forces. They
rode in tanks across the burning desert, and flew in cockpits over the Persian Gulf. They slept
next to thousands of children waiting for their moms and dads to return home.
The first creation was the Special Forces bear - the "Green Bearet" - in 1987. Today, their are
over 50 designs covering virtually all the uniformed services, and we will continue to expand our
design list to give recognition to an ever expanding service clientele.
We like being a part of the growing world of Teddy Bears. Collectors are now so numerous they
have a magazine of their own called "Teddy Bear Review." There are more artists creating bears for
adults than children. And there is even a "Golden Teddy" award given each year for best design.
We hope you'll browse through our online bear store and join the Bear Forces of America.
May the Bear Force be with you!
