Our Army soldiers have a rough time over seas, especially when they have to leave their family and friends behind to fight for a country that has forgotten about them. I am an Army wife and I am trying to help reach out to our soldiers who are fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan for our freedom. There are men and women who don't get letters or packages sent to them in the year that they are there. I know that these men and women would be thrilled to know that we Americans still care and are thankful for what they do. I am taking donations for carepackages and letters to send to our brave heros. If you have any questions, know of a soldier who would love a package or would like to help donate to Operation Forgotten Soldier please email me at op.forgotten.soldier@gmail.com. I will answer any questions that you may have.
