With all of the slings and arrows, so to speak, of those who want to malign the heroes who protect this country's freedoms, sometimes the incredible things those heroes do get obscured.

Take Alan, for instance - he wrote to Soldiers' Angels not to ask for items for himself, but for the children of Afghanistan....

What I really need is children's winter clothing...jackets, gloves and boots (boys and girls). The winters in Afghanistan are so incredibly brutal on the kids that are in the outlining areas. We want to try to help as many of the kids here as humanly possible. If you could buy these items and send them to my military address below, that would be the best way. The nights are already getting down into the thirtys and when the first rain and snow hits, it will be very difficult to reach some of the villages.

Thanks so much and God Bless You!

Alan

Soldiers' Angels is on the case - if you would like to help with this effort, please send an email, and make sure to put "help the children" in your subject line.
