Is there a place that lists email links so I can send pictures from Pro-America rallies?
I'm going to the Glenn Beck rally tomorrow with my digital camera.

Today while shopping my daughter and I saw three Army men. We walked up and thanked them for what they're doing. Come to find out they're recruiters and were touched that someone thanked them.

:o) My daughter is making cookies...we'll be delivering them to the recruiters on Monday.

Might I suggest that many more folks would do the same?

Sorry, don't know. But I bet somebody here will have the answer.

A few weeks ago I saw four soldiers in a restaurant and I thanked them. Last week I thank a Marine Recruiter buying gasoline. Today I saw a man in a restaurant with a "Seabee" tshirt on. We talked awhile and after my wife showed up she told me I should pay for their lunch. He had three people with him so I told the manager to bring me their bill. As he was walking out he came over and thanked me. I told him, "I didn't pay for that. America bought you lunch." We both thanked him and went on our way.

When I was in the Seabees back in the early 70's we didn't get much thanks and I'm making sure I personally thank every military person I see.

What a wonderful story!

I told one of the recruiters to check out FR for thousands of folks who support our military. I hope he does. :o)

You don't know how much it means to a soldier when you come up and thank them.
I has happened to my hubby a couple of times and he was always deeply touched.

Btw...sent my hubby some homemade cookies, he should get them Monday...I don't know what condition they will be in, but he won't care...LOL

Your hubby is a *very* special fellow, mystery-ak. He'll love you even more for baking and sending the cookies. Even if they're crumbs he'll be thrilled. :o)

I feel such an overwhelming pride when I see a military person. I almost always make a point to thank them.
