Go to CARE PACKAGES For Our Troops on FR. We send boxes of food, toiletries, socks and handkerchiefs, dvds, and books to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan. We include encouraging and loving notes in those boxes, too.
And there is a small group of A Gathering of Eagles and Minutemen on the big island in Hawaii who gather along the road with flags and signs to welcome troops either going there for training. returning from the war zones, or shipping out to war zones.
It brings tears to my eyes that their numbers are not in the cheering hundreds! God bless these people. God bless our troops, and God bless America.

Thanks Paperdoll, I hope others see your post. I'm a member of Gathering of Eagles and my VFW has a care package effort underway right now. I would love to see more people participate in these wonderful projects, but for all those like you who do, I am very thankful.
