Tell Them Thanks!

us military seals Pictures, Images and PhotosYesterday, I was online, and one of my friends on Facebook was posting status updates about her sending care packages and letters to U.S soldiers who are overseas. I wanted a "penpal" of some sort for a while cause I like to write to people of different places, and I think writing a full letter means more than a plain email. So I did some research, and found a website called Tell Them Thanks. What they do is you fill out an application and they will send you via email, an address to a soldier that you can write to and send care packages to. It doesn't take long either. They require you to send a letter once a month, and let them know when you sent out a letter to make sure that soldiers are receiveing mail. It's really simple. If not, they will reassign that soldier to someone else.

I started yesterday and "adopted" my soldier who is stationed in Iraq (at first, I thought she was in Afghanistan, but did some more research and found out she was in Iraq). I'm sooo excited because not only did I get a "penpal", but she's also a soldier fighting for our freedom and liberty, which makes it even better.

If you want a penpal of some sort, I highly ENCOURAGE "adopting" a U.S soldier. It shows your support and it helps them know that they are loved and missed back home.
