Chrysler LLC to Honor Troops During Military Appreciation Month

  -- Chrysler to be recognized by ESGR with the Pro Patria Award

  -- Chrysler to recognize employees actively serving in the military

  -- Michigan National Guard and Operation Gratitude to receive cash
     donation from The Chrysler Foundation

  -- Five hundred care packages to be sent to deployed troops

  What:  To kick off Military Appreciation Month, Chrysler will honor those
         employees who have been called to active military duty as members
         of the Michigan National Guard and U.S. Military Reserve.

         In recognition of this effort, along with its long history of
         military support, Chrysler will be honored by the Employer Support
         of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) with the 2008 Pro Patria Award.
         This award is presented to one employer in the state each year who
         demonstrates exceptional support for national defense by adopting
         personnel policies that allow employees to actively participate in
         the National Guard and Reserve.

         To further Chrysler's support during Military Appreciation Month,
         The Chrysler Foundation will make a donation to the Michigan
         National Guard and to Operation Gratitude, a non-profit
         organization that seeks to lift troops' morale, by sending care
         packages to service members overseas.

         In partnership with Operation Gratitude, the Chrysler Veterans
         Committee has collected enough items to fill 500 care packages that
         will be sent to deployed troops. Bob Nardelli and other Chrysler
         executives will join employee volunteers in assembling the care
         packages.
