We went to the ballgame today. There was a lot of pomp and circumstance, a lot of cheering for soldiers in the crowd (as it should be) and a whole bunch of signs with statements like "Thank a Vet" and "Thank you to our Troops". What we didn't see was signs that say what we should be saying "We owe you more than just thanks".
Two days a year saying thank you to a Vet is not enough. We need to do more for our troops. We need to make sure that at the very least, when they are in harms way because of us, they can talk to their loved ones and feel a just a little bit of the comforts of home.
Let's show them our gratitude by sending more calling cards this Memorial Day.
