Operation Any Solider

BarTopDancer · 11-12-2007, 03:18 PM

As we're all aware, our men and women are still overseas fighting in this war. Regardless of our feelings about this war, it is important to remember our men and women overseas. Since 9/11 mail-drives such as Operation Dear Abby and mail to "Any Soldier (Marine, Sailor, Airman)" have been suspended for security reasons.

AnySoldier.com gives military personal a place to list things that they would like and need and civilians who would like to help/support/give to our troops a place to send. Sometimes it is a Captain submitting a request for his troops and sometimes it is a PFC requesting things for he or she and their buddies. Snacks and toiletries are always popular items, but some places are experiencing a shortage of winter items such as socks and beanies. Not everyone is lucky enough to have family at home. And not everyone is fortunate enough to be able to afford little luxuries or necessities with their income supporting a family at home.

During this holiday season (and year round), take a moment to remember our men and women overseas. We see it on the news every day. But it's easy to forget the human face behind it.
