For Thanksgiving, I thought I'd post a bit early. I took these photos at a deployment ceremony as the soldiers left us and got on the bus headed for the airport and a year away in Afghanistan. You know why I was there.
We are thankful that we have men and women and their supportive families. Their sacrifices cannot ever be repaid.
The Red Cross runs a holiday card program to deliver cards to members of our military. The deadline in Dec. 6. This is the address:
Holiday Mail for Heroes

| I don't know who this woman saying goodbye is, but their hands tell the whole story for me. |

| As this soldier says his last goodbyes to his family, we can all see what a wrenching moment this is. |
