Move America Forward has just finished up our last Texas stop in Houston, and we are on our way to Louisiana and then Alabama for more pro-troop rallies.  We met more wonderful patriotic Americans.

Sharon Burns is the mother of a Navy SEAL.  Ironically, our Gold Star Mom met her son while sitting next to each other at a funeral of a fallen brother.  Sharon also conducts fishing trips for returned wounded soldiers – five bus loads on the last trip.

Scott Kimrey is Blue Star Dad who takes time to do something nice for a Gold Star family during the Christmas season.  He is so typical of our MAF supporters around the country, who have stood up for our troops year in and year out.  We so appreciate your support.

We also want to give thanks to Curtis Tipton, the Wal Mart manager that made room for us at the front of the parking lot.  Wal Mart has hosted every one of our Texas stops, and we truly appreciate their commitment to American soldiers.
