View Full Version : Support Your Troops jillianjiggs 03-19-2003, 01:23 AM If you can't be out there fighting, at least help support the men and women that are. Operation Military Support provides the names and addresses of soldiers that do not recieve regular mail from home. You write them, maybe send them some goodies, and help brighten their mood.

During round one, I wrote my husband everyday, when he told me about others that never got mail, I started sending a few letters a week. Back then it was just addressed to Any Marine, Any Soldier, etc. It was great when they wrote back, it really did help them. Seeing the anti-war protesters on the TV, moral gets low. jillianjiggs 03-19-2003, 01:54 AM I have plenty of free time at work...I know, sounds funny...but I really get paid to sit there and do nothing. It's really boring. This would be a win-win situation for both myself and the soldiers I signed up to correspond with. I asked for 3-5 new buddies. I'm excited. :) Tally 03-19-2003, 01:04 PM wow, this really is wonderful, thankyou for posting it. These men and women are out there doing so much for us, it's great that we can do a little something for them. Even if a letter or package is a small gesture it can mean the entire world. thanks for posting. p.s. to the admin - can we move this into the lounge so more people will see it? nobody really comes to the Issues forum :( Foul Temptress 03-19-2003, 01:35 PM Jill- Feel free to post a link in the lounge to this thread, if you like. Its good to have it in this section, Tally, important things tend to get lost in the jumble of the lounge. Trust me :( Its an excellent idea though! Criminal 03-19-2003, 01:42 PM Will do. I do not support the war but I will do whatever is possible to support the men and women fighting there. Tally 03-19-2003, 02:31 PM Originally posted by Criminal Will do.
