Great Googly Moogly!
As you know, I come from a military family. My dad was in the ARMY reserves for like 28 years or some shit and my brother earned a Bronze Star during his year and a half stint in Iraq. As much as I can't STAND this current war we're in, it's impossible for me to feel anything but support, compassion, and concern for each and every soldier that has been deployed.
My very good blogging friend ROSIE has signed up to do a 24 hour blogathon with a bunch of other military wives. Rosie is one special lady and her cause is something that is MUCH needed. The blogathon is to benefit the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. Quite amazing.
You can sponsor Rosie or one of the other teams participating in this event or you can simply just go over and read about it. Either or, I think that by taking some time out of your daily grind to look into this would be the least that any of us could do.
Please show your support. And if you do have an extra dollar to donate, that's even more powerful and would make this JOE very, very happy.
As a country, we must stick together and do whatever we can to make sure that these returning soldiers are cared for. Whether you believe in the war or not, none of these soldiers had a say in whether or not they would go and fight. They're doing their job. And might I say, a job that I could never do.
Please take a moment to follow the above links.
Thank you!
