There is a website where you can send a postcard to one of our service members overseas who is serving our country. It is a free service and I think it is a great way to thank our service members for what they do. The postcards have patriotic designs on them and they were designed by children across the United States. Xerox helps a lot with this project.This is a quote from their website
"The mission of Let's Say Thanks is to provide a way for individuals across the country to recognize U.S. troops stationed overseas. By submitting a message through this site you have the opportunity to send a free personalized postcard greeting to deployed servicemen and women.
The postcards, depicting patriotic scenes and hometown images, were selected from a pool of entries from children across the country.
All you have to do is click on your favorite design and either select the message that best expresses your sentiment or draft a personal note. The postcards are then printed on the Xerox iGen3® Digital Production Press and mailed in care packages by military support organization Give2TheTroops®.
Xerox is committed to helping people across the nation express their gratitude to our troops overseas. The launch of this program is aimed at reminding them how much Americans appreciate their service."

I like this idea. I just sent one. I mean you don't have to approve of the war to still appreciate the people that fight it. It's a sweet gesture.

Thanks for sharing that with us! I have a loved one in the Marines and I know how hard it is to be far away from them! It feels really good to let one of those guys know that we are rooting for them and we are really proud of them!
Take Care,
Nikki

Supporting our troops is the best thing we can do! Care packages, letters, phone calls (when able), and good military grassrooting practices on the homefront ALL help out in the effort.
