SUPPORT GROUPS FOR OUR AMERICAN HEROES

I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GIVE A HYPERLINK FOR EACH GROUP YOU SEE BELOW.

Military Exits mission is to help our soldiers and their families make the transition from military to civilian life as easy as possible.

This group is dedicated to supporting our brave young men and woman that are fighting to protect America and its people. Just one small thank you in a letter means more to them than words could ever say. Here you will find addresses, emails, and photos of our military, as well as our dear allies the Australians . Wont you help us in supporting some of America and Australians finest.

This web site is designed to be a place where all people can show support for our men and women of the
armed forces serving away from home. We all want them to know that we are proud of the sacrifices they are
making to preserve freedom for all people, everywhere.

Since before the United States entered World War II, the USO (United Service Organizations) has been a bridge between the American people and the U.S. military. In times of peace and war, the USO has consistently delivered its special brand of comfort, morale and recreational services to service members and their families. A nonprofit, congressionally chartered, private organization, the USO relies on the generosity of individuals, organizations and corporations to support USO activities. The USO is not part of the U.S. Government but is supported by the President of the United States and the Department of Defense. Each President has been the Honorary Chairman of the USO since its inception.

Want to send your support to a Soldier in harm's way,
but have no idea of what to send, who to send it to, or how to send it?

We provide Soldier contacts on the "Where to Send" page. Read through the names and select the ones you wish to support. They list what they want and need. We even have a search capability so you can identify easily what the troops need most.

MILITARY ORDER
PURPLE HEART

This website is about our troops, for our troops! We are so indebted to the men and women serving in our Armed Forces for our safety and freedom that we dedicate this website to them! Thank you Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, Airmen and coast Guardsmen!!

Operation First Response focuses on wounded troops from Walter Reed Army Medical Center to Landstuhl Regional Medical Center in Germany and combat support hospitals in Iraq. We are always in need of financial donations as well as sweatshirts, socks, underwear, toothbrushes, razors, etc. and backpacks for delivery of these essentials.

It is our mission to provide encouragement, motivation and moral support to our Military Service Members directly and primarily through email, correspondence and care packages.

	A Soldier Home From Iraq Surprises His Son
I Received This email From my sister Kathy Zimmerman in Minnesota. Thank you sister for the wonderful story just showing one of the meanings of SUPPORT.
	Sea of Red Last week, while traveling to Chicago on business, I noticed a Marine sergeant traveling with a folded flag, but did not put two and two Together. After we boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who'd been Invited to sit in First Class (across from me), and inquired if he was Heading home. No, he responded. Heading out I asked? No. I'm escorting a soldier home. Going to pick him up? No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Iraq , I'm taking him home to his family. The realization of what he had been asked to do hit me like a punch to the Gut. It was an honor for him. He told me that, although he didn't know the Soldier, he had delivered the news of his passing to the soldier's family And felt as if he knew them after many conversations in so few days. I turned Back to him, extended my hand, and said, Thank you. Thank you for doing What you do so my family and I can do what we do. Upon landing in Chicago the pilot stopped short of the gate and made the Following announcement over the intercom. "Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to note that we have had the honor of Having Sergeant Steeley of the United States Marine Corps join us on this Flight. He is escorting a fallen comrade back home to his family. I ask That you please remain in your seats when we open the forward door to allow Sergeant Steeley to deplane and receive his fellow soldier. We will then Turn off the seat belt sign." Without a sound, all went as requested. I noticed the sergeant saluting the Casket as it was brought off the plane, and his action made me realize that I am proud to be an American. So here's a public Thank You to our military Men and Women for what you do So we can live the way we do. Red Fridays. Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing Red every Friday. The reason? Americans who support our troops used to be called the "silent majority." We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for country in record breaking numbers. We are not organized, boisterous or overbearing. Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of America supports our troops. Our idea of showing Solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday -- and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a Deafening message that ... Every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar, will wear something red. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United States on every Friday a sea of red much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers. If every One of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, coworkers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the USA is covered in RED and it Will let our troops know the once "silent" majority is on their side more than ever, certainly more than the media lets on. The first thing a soldier says when asked "What can we do to make things better for you?" is ..."We need your support and your prayers." Let's get the word out And lead with class and dignity, by example, and wear something red every Friday.
