Please excuse the vanity post. I just received this email this evening - made me cry - but it says it all. PLEASE REMEMBER OUR TROOPS.

I believe that it's called "A Soldier's Christmas", and it's a very simple and beautiful message! Thanks for posting... :)

I did some searching, after reading yours...and found the URL pasted below. This guy claims to the the author (probably true, but who knows)..., but the part that I found most intruiging (and yet, realkly not) was how he claims that it was written on (or around) December 7th, 2000!

So, it shows that (all at the same time) it does and does not have to do with OIF, but rather is about our servicemen & women in general (especially while serving abroad, on Christmas)! That was what made this little poem even more precious to me... :)
