I've seen this earlier and encourage ALL bloggers to post this on their respective pages. One can't help but be inclined to do something...contribute to our troops in one way or another.
As for myself, I'm on a Human Relations Committee. Twice a year we collect goods and goodies, package them and ship them to our (well-deserving) troops to Iraq and Afghanistan.
As a reward, the committee receive letters of thanks, noting how appreciative the troops are AND how proud they are to be able to fight for the good of their country.
As I prepare for my Annual Holiday Cocktail Party, I will be requesting my guests to bring an unwrapped toy, which will be donated to the children of our troops.
For now, we're opening this blog to Anonymous comments. This will continue as long as civility rules. Disagree as you may, just keep it clean and stay on topic. No profanity, and no name calling. We reserve the right to moderate such comments, though the person who made it may come back and reword their message in a more civil way.
