Go here and pick out a postcard to send to an American soldier.
Thanks to Michelle.

Posted by: Melissa on December 4, 2006 08:36 PMI sent the one from "Shelbey, 10, Mesa, AZ"
"Kiara, 9, Washington, D.C." was also sent.
They went to Marine Captain Ely and Marine S/Sgt Eddie. Both are in Ramadi, el-Anbar. Both deal with Marine Aviation.
I *know* they will get the little bit of shock-and-light that I sent them, ...and perhaps delete such a simple offering. That's cool. And I'll BET YOU that they use that little bit to spread some random-grins of their own further on because of it.
Send one! Send TWO! Someone will be glad you did.

I wish I had found this earlier. I'll probably send another one tonight.
Posted by: Fuckhead Jenkins on December 4, 2006 10:57 PMMy Daughter, Army SP6 Colleen is OUT! My Son, USN OS2 Charlie is OUT! Y'all can go on having your war-of-choice!
Prez W can't claim what *I* claim!
MY kids followed my example of shutting up, serving, and getting an Honorable Discharge. We now represent 4 Services in the space of one-Generation.
AMERICA is better-off TODAY because of the kitchen-table conversations THIS household has held.
Like I said, W can't claim what *I* can claim: MY Kids went to War and (THANK GOD!!!!) came home safe & sound.
I don't *REALLY* mean it when I say:
"Fuck YOU! MY Children served and are HOME!!!!!"
But, By God! There is a FIERCE pride here in THIS Household this early AM!
Perhaps DRUNK on the booze that OS2 Charlie brought from India, perhaps listening to his Sister SP6 Colleen, maybe I should just sign off and go revel with my children.
Adios!
A VERY-Merry Christmas has already arrived-here at the DanS. household!

I'm very happy to hear that your children are home from war. That is excellent news.
If you haven't already signed off, please thank each of them for me for serving their country. And I thank you as well.
Merry Christmas, Dan. Now go have a party. Y'all have earned it.
