Kosovo, Iraq and Afghanistan
We have been invited and approved to embed with thousands of National Guard soldiers in Kosovo. Most people I talk with do not even know we have troops in Kosovo let alone the great work they are doing for the people. I am working to find the corporation, organization or individual sponsors to cover the air fare. As soon as we have that accomplished I will announce this trip. We are hoping to make this trip before Christmas.
I am open to any advise and help to make this happen!!
We are also working on our next trip to Iraq and Afghanistan. In Afghanistan we have many troops we can embed with to bring back to you and the American people the other side of the story there.. our Troops progress stories.
You can see some of these stories NOW by reading the current issue and previous issues of Thank You For Your Service.
Please forward these announcements to as many people as you can.
Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah (Hannukah)!!!
