How You Can Help Our Troops
Many people have asked how they can lend a hand to help our troops. There are various examples and organizations that can provide you with information:
· Donate your frequent flyer miles to a "SkyMiles for Heroes" program for Soldiers to come home at Operation Hero Miles **NEW**
· Donate a calling card to help keep service members in touch with their families at Operation Uplink
· Sign a virtual thank you card at the Defend America
· Volunteer at a VA Hospital: to honor veterans who bore the lamp of freedom in past conflicts
· Reach out to military families in your community, especially those with a loved one overseas.
· Please do not flood the military mail system with letters, cards, and gifts. Due to security concerns and transportation constraints, the Department cannot accept items to be mailed to "Any Servicemember": Some people have tried to avoid this prohibition by sending large numbers of packages to an individual service member's address, which however well intentioned, clogs the mail and causes unneccessary delays.
