Soldier's Angels

Today, I'm going to be plugging, my favorite charity, Soldier's Angels.

Especially in times like now, we should be thinking about other people. Soldier's angels pairs Soldiers that don't have any families with citizens.

Could you imagine being a soldier, hundreds and thousands of miles away from home, standing in line for mail call every morning receiving nothing. While everyone else gets a letter, or a care package from home?

What if you were a wounded warrior, all alone in a medical unit, without even your battle buddies, and nobody to go home to, nobody to send you cookies, or warm socks.  Nobody to send letters of encouragement, wishing you well?

That doesn't sound like a very good place to be. I sure wouldn't want to be alone like that. So I adopted a soldier. more than one actually. We all send them letters, and care packages every month, Can you believe that right now, at 3:04 PM on October 5th, there is 709 soldiers waiting for adoption? that is 709 people, just like you and I, with feelings, and thoughts, all alone, getting shot at every day, with nobody to write to, or to write to them. How sad.

Do you think you could write a letter a week, and send at least one care package a month to a soldier in need of a family?

Go to www.SoldiersAngels.org today.   It's the best thing you could do to support our troops. Don't just put a bumper sticker on your car and forget about them. Show them you really do support them.


That's my plug post for today.  :)
