Thanksgiving and U.S. Troops
Posted: Wed Nov 15, 2006 9:44 am
I don't care to debate if you think the ongoing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are right or wrong, we all have opinioins and we are not likely to change what each other thinks.
I believe as an Americans it is our duty for us to support them, for us to do our part in helping keep their spirits high, I know, as does anyone who has ever served in the millitary that the holidays are the hardest time of all, it is very difficult to be seperated from family and friends during this time and war makes it even harder.
There are many things one can do, care packages, monetary donations, adopt a troop, the lists and needs are endless, I've listed a few organizations below tha I believe are worthy, but I encourage you to check them as well as others out. Doing anything is better than nothing, just knowing that Americans back home care about them is worth more than we'll ever know.
They need our help.
