Some of us have the luxury today to shop for bargains, take in some movies, or simply get together with friends and family. Unfortunately, Labor Day is no holiday for our troops…..stateside or overseas. My son and brother don’t get this day off, they are training for war and working sixteen hour days.

They are always on alert in our warzones.

Please consider visiting Soldier’s Angels to help lift up the spirits of our troops. Many of our soldiers overseas never receive letters or packages to help remind them that someone at home is thinking of them.

Also, please remember the troops (and their families) we’ve lost during this long fight here.
