As a veteran, I can tell you that such little things as getting mail from home, or a simple ‘thank you’ from a stranger, means more than the average civilian could ever know.
Thanks for this piece.

This is why you are one of my favorite writers here on Triond.
I do no know anyone who is in the military but my WD History teacher last year her husband died in combat. And I hated to hear such a tragic thing but I knew he died in honor and died for his country and it is a real reason why we have our freedom.
Thank you for writing this.

Mnof, I love you for this article. All of these things are important in my life. I have an extra little tip for the wives, girlfriends and buddies of the men overseas. You can delete it if you want. lol

If you take the cover off a “legal” magazine and slip a “special” magazine between the pages and staple it in the same way as the original, it usually gets past the checkers. Just a little fyi because there is nothing like morale.

Another good site, AAUSS.com to adopt a soldier…Also if someone wants to write a wounded marine or seaman, Operation PAL.com Havent found one for the other branches. Not like it matters though, they are all serving the same purpose.
