While We Go About Our Daily Lives . . .

America's men and women in the military continue their mission in some really god-forsaken parts of the world in order that we can experience life in this great country.

 

 

America's Military

These are the folks who work their fannies off and put their lives on the line 24/7 for us.

 

 

From what I've been able to determine, here are some reputable charities that benefit active duty military, veterans, and their families:

Wounded Warrior Project: “The greatest casualty is being forgotten.”

Fisher House Foundation: donates “comfort homes,” built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one (free of charge) at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.

Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund: Charity that funded the construction of the National Intrepid Center of Excellence, a facility dedicated to research, diagnosis, and treatment of military personnel and veterans suffering from TBI (traumatic brain injury) and psychological health issues (such as PTSD).

The Injured Marine Semper Fi Fund: Provides immediate financial support for injured and critically ill members of the US Armed Forces and their families.

Troops First Foundation: Develops, operates, and supports a synergistic group of wellness, quality of life and sports-based initiatives in support of military personnel. Both non-injured and injured military personnel and their families are served at no cost.

 

The Power of the Military

You tell me this wouldn't rattle your body just a bit if you were on board the USS New Jersey at the time these bad boys fired ! ! !
