Editor's Note

All My Children producers are looking for at least one good man (or woman) who served in Iraq to star on an upcoming episode of the show. Known for it's groundbreaking storylines and stories ripped from the headlines, AMC is headed back to those roots by including an actual Iraq war veteran to play an injured vet on the show. The real-life veteran will be included in a romantic storyline about the challenges faced by vets everywhere after they come home from a combat zone. To ensure that they remain true to the core storyline, producers are working with USA Cares, a veterans' support group.

Veterans interested in the part should contact Judy Blye Wilson, the casting director for the show.

Judy Blye Wilson
320 West 66th Street
New York, NY 10023

The character, currently called only Brot, will be thrown into the storyline of Frankie, Taylor and Jake.
