  We report on the first calculation of the longitudinal and transverse light
front distribution amplitudes of the $D^*$ and $D^*_s$ mesons and their first
four moments. As a byproduct, we also obtain these distribution amplitudes for
the $\rho$, $\phi$, $K^*$ and $J/\Psi$ mesons and confirm a prediction of
lattice QCD for the vector kaon: while the longitudinal distribution amplitude
is almost symmetric, the transverse one is oblique implying that the strange
quark carries more momentum.
