A CONCRETE WAY TO SUPPORT THE TROOPS
Ribbons are nice. A suggestion from my mailbox is somewhat more practical.
The number ONE request at Walter Reed hospital is phone cards.
The government doesn't pay long distance phone charges and these wounded soldiers are rationing their calls home.
Many will be there throughout the holidays.
Really support our troops --Send phone cards of any amount to:
Medical Family Assistance Center
Walter Reed Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue, NW
Washington, DC 20307-5001
They say they need an "endless" supply of these -- any amount
even $5 is greatly appreciated.
Walmart has good prices on AT&T cards, Sams Club is even
better, if you are a member.
