This thread was never intended to intimidate or put anyone on a guilt trip. The intent was merely to bring this situation to the attention of those that would like to do somethings. I certainly understand how easy it is to get caught up with all the problems of the world. I would never want to shame anyone into doing something they wouldn't want to do on their own. This is just an opportunity for some of us to show some of these kids how much we appreciate what they have done.

As Jay told me the other day it is not the amount of the contribution but the recognition, because some of these soldiers have paid a tremendous price for doing their job. Now we can help in their rehabilitation, but only if we want to.
