They're still out there for you

With all the newspapers and TV news and gossip programs filled with Obamacare debates, crooked politicians and Hollywood’s latest cheating husbands, lately the media has all but ignored a critically important group of Americans.

Our GIs, Marines, sailors and airmen are still out there in Afghanistan, Iraq and dozens of other lonely posts around the world. They put their lives on the line every day so that Americans back home can have the freedom of living without fear from enemies abroad.

For information about contacting other service people who’d appreciate some mail from you, contact the USO, American Red Cross or other military-related website.
