Xerox Thanks Service Members
XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL
If you go to this web site, www.letssaythanks.com
you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq . You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services.
How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them.
This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you. Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say enough thank you's.
Thanks for taking to time to support our military!

Signed, sealed and delivered, good find. I was downrange for the past two Thanksgivings, it is the least I could do to send someone a card that a ten year old designed for them.

Card gladly sent shortly after reading this the first time around. I shared the link with all of my friends and family and have encouraged them to participate.

Card out 
Forwarded link-it would be nice,as you said,if everyone would take a few minutes and do this. Sucks they limit the message length tho-I had to revise my card 7 times
The fact that they are there,so that this thanksgiving,I can be here,has not escaped me,and I know what its like to be away from home for the 1st time,or to not have anyone to send you mail ect,and it is shitty. Lets just hope that NEXT thanksgiving,we are ALL "home",where ever that is,for Thanksgiving,and all other holidays.
It'd be nice for everyone to be home for ALL holidays next year,with no internal or external threats,and with everybody dreading the weekly trip to wallyworld with their family,like "normal" again

Card sent on behalf of our grateful family. The message has been passed along to friends and family as well.
Take a look at Messages From Our Troops on the same website, including this note from an Air Force Sergeant:
Quote:

...That is awesome and so are you. On behalf of the U.S. Armed Forces, we really appreciate your consideration and hope that our sacrifice will lead to a better future for you and your families.
|
I am humbled after reading these responses to something as simple as a post card that took 2 minutes to send. No credit or appreciation is deserved on my part.
