Never Forget about our Troops!

Want to do something that will REALLY help our troops? Join is us in sending support to America’s bravest!

There are currently over 130,000 troops still serving in Afghanistan, mostly US troops and some from other nations of the 50-member NATO coalition.

Our troops are serving in some of the most dangerous places to be in the world, where the Taliban and their Al Qaeda allies continue to try and destabilize a nation to bring back a safe haven for radical Islamist extremists can train, plot, and launch attacks against the nations of the Western world, primarily the United States.

Our mission is to send care packages to support those brave troops! For as little as $25 you can send support to a Soldier, Marine, Airman, Sailor, or Guardsman serving overseas. Each package contains lots of goodies and helpful items that our troops appreciate, such as coffee, cookies, beef jerky, deodorant, wet wipes and more!

Welcome to Free Republic, Lt Col!

Jim and I enjoyed listening to you being interviewed live over radio station KFBK here at the Troopathon by John McGinness.

You have some great stories from your 30+ years serving our country. Thank you very much for doing that for America.

Jump right in, we would love to talk with you here!

"This is so much easier than going out and putting a package together."

Sure is!

And Thank you! I hope a lot of FReepers will help with this. We're running well behind where we were last year.

Hi Everybody, it’s Mel! thanks so much for all that you are doing to support our troops! Our donations are steady, but we need a LOT more to reach our goal of $250,000.
We want to send as many care packages as possible to our troops in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Help us to help them!!!!
Your friend, Melanie

Hey everbody it’s Debbie Lee....please help spread the word and make a donation to send care packages to our troops serving in combat zones. We are halfway through and have only raised 48,000.00 our goal is 250,000...I’m discouraged and I know our troops feel like we have forgotten them.My son Marc Alan Lee gave his life for our freedoms and I have dedicated my life to honoring and supporting out troops. I can’t do this alone. Please...please go to troopathon.org or call 866-866-6372.

God bless our troops...our heroes. I will never forget!!!

FReepers - hit THIS LINK to donate!

You can send a small package - feel good that you have given - and delight a soldier that needs to know that we honor them.

BTTT! Just donated and sent a ping encouraging others to do the same. Both donate and ping your lists. It feels great to donate to our troops who are not anywhere nearly paid enough or appreciated enough. God Bless them.
