[TheForge] Helping our troops- OT

[Jerry]

Philip and all,
	I served during Vietnam, I spent two tours. I had no welcome home, except 
for a lady spit on me at the airport and said that I killed innocent 
children. If she wanted to teach me a real lesson there would have been 
many other ways :)
	This war, I have helped welcome home several reserve and guard units.  I 
have helped with doing health and comfort packages, had the kids from a 
local school draw pictures and write letters, then made sure they got in to 
the mail system, helped out suddenly active service family deal with some 
of the paperwork.  Plus I have been to a few funerals for those who have 
passed away from all wars, that is very depressing to do.

	I have my dog tag from "America Supports You" for my help, when it came in 
the mail I wore it proudly. I wish this had been done for me.
