Thank you for your contribution to help our Gold Star parents.

the logo in your post above indicates that donations are for the Gold Star Parents to Iraq trip, the online site itself (CompleteCampaigns.com) does not mention or acknowledge that the donation is for the Gold Star Parents

Thank you for pointing this out. My mistake...I meant to mention it.
I have been assured that they know which campaign the monies are for.

Dear POP,
I know you are with me every step of the way. I thought that others on the post might not understand. I salute your bravery and love you as part of my military family and the common but sad bond that we share. God bless our sons!

Amen.

And for those of you who can't afford to contribute toward the delinquency of a Gold Star family but still want to show support for the troops, send socks. As Karl said, "What I really need is a huge quantity of socks; laundry is kind of iffy here at the dam, so I need a huge supply that can last a few weeks and then the whole batch can be washed at once. I can wear the same pair of socks multiple days in the row without fear of infection, since my boots stay pretty dry; however, the smell is horrid when I take the boots off at the end of the day, so having a pair of socks for each day or 2 would probably make the room smell less butt-like."

Hi Deb...I went out today. How about you? LOL! ;*)

Great idea POP! The unit I ship to requested socks around Christmas. I think they ended up supplying socks to all of Iraq!!! LOL!

No! I had a girl's night out at my home. "Whine and cheese evening" Half of the group are Dems, but I make them sit at the GOP table at my home. Oh, what a night! After speaking with some Commanders today, I am posting a new message tonight. I will call it, "The Military Vote."
love, deb
