The Green Beret Foundation

Ladies and Gent's,

Please get the word out concerning the Green Beret Foundation. The US Army Green Beret's pay a heavy price for what they do and ask nothing in return. Now you can help those wounded Green Berets, directly.

http://www.greenberetfoundation.org/

All of you that have asked to donate to this website and I said "No thank you", now, please go and donate to the Green Beret Foundation.

This is all about "the Green Berets and their families" period.

Please assist us and "Get the word out."

Twitter it, Facebook it, send it to every media outlet you know. Send it to every military blog and website.

Get the word out.

Thanks,

Team Sergeant


Green Beret Foundation

The United States Army Special Forces, commonly known as the Green Berets, produces some of our nation’s finest and most elite warriors. They fight across a broad spectrum of missions in the pursuit of freedom for those oppressed and to protect our nation from those who seek to do us harm. They are known as our country's quiet professionals. The Green Berets have been defending our nation against its enemies throughout the last 5 decades in times of peace and war.

The liberties we enjoy as Americans don’t come without a cost. The Special Forces bear the burden of having the highest number of wounded personnel of any other U.S. Special Operations Forces (SOF) proponent. The Green Beret Foundation serves these quiet professionals who bravely serve the American people and its freedoms.

In an effort to fill the gaps in support left by the boundaries of other organizations, the GBF facilitates assistance to our wounded, ill and injured Special Forces soldiers and their families. We do this by providing resources to ease the burdens of some of the financial hardships that arise in their time of need as well as improving the quality of life for the soldier and the family.
