Volunteer at a VA
Hospital to honor veterans who bore the lamp of
freedom in past conflicts.
Support families whose
loved ones are being treated at military and VA
hospitals through a donation to the Fisher House at www.fisherhouse.org.
Reach out to military
families in your community, especially those with a
loved one overseas.
Please do not flood the
military mail system with letters, cards, and gifts. Due
to security concerns and transportation constraints, the
Department cannot accept items to be mailed to "Any
Servicemember." Some people have tried to avoid
this prohibition by sending large numbers of packages to
an individual service member's address, which however
well intentioned, clogs the mail and causes unnecessary
delays.
The support and generosity
of the American people has touched the lives of many
service members, over 300,000 of whom are deployed
overseas
