Thread: Adopt A Soldier!

Hey All,

Here is a good program that I found that gives support to our troops. The program allows you to "adopt" a soldier, let them know you appreciate them, and help him or her out with their physical needs. I know that times are tight, and some of you do not have much to give. If you can't afford to give anything, I am sure they would appreciate your letters just the same! These guys are willing to give all for us. If you feel up to it, please support them, regardless of political stance...

Thanks all, I would not petition if I did not think it was a good cause!

Thanks for the info...

http://www.specialops.org/ here is another good one I've given money to. My brother runs ultra marathons every year to raise money for them.

Maybe send them something nice to shave with?

I am sure they would appreciate it. Just not canned shaving cream, I guess the cans rupture in transport...

As if we'd pick something in a can anyway.

Considering my son Josh is still in Mosul, count me in as well. I am always good for an extra care package. Lynn

As an ex military man myself I think it's a great idea. Unfortunately they do not take overseas registrations.

damn....that rules me out as well.

I have a friend in the National Guard whose until has been in Mississippi for a couple of months now, gearing up and training for a 1 year deployment to Afghanistan starting early June. He spent time in the Sinai Peninsula a couple of years ago. These guys are really thankful for letters, magazines, comic books, and lots of other stuff. Support really helps these guys out.
