Veterans Day

How important it is for us to recognize and celebrate our heroes and she-roes! –Maya Angelou

"News from the homefront—even from strangers—is a treasure to those far from home."

"Hero Mail is great," says one Chaplain. "I go out and pray with the soldiers before missions and I hand out Hero Mail." Letters are distributed to those who rarely get mail, or to those most in need of encouragement the day the box arrives. "It helps to know that we are remembered!"
