Cards for Recovering Soldiers

This will stay at the top until 12/10; had posted previously but here it is again...IN YOUR FACE. :) Put this on your blog, get it out there!
There was an e-mail circulating around the Net with an address to send Christmas cards to recovering wounded soldiers at Walter Reed Hospital. I wanted to make sure it wasn't a fake, so called. Sure enough the address is incorrect and a lady at Walter Reed gave me the correct addie.
Holiday Mail for Heroes
P.O. Box 5456
Capitol Heights, MD 20791-5456
Please have all mail there by December 10. The cards will then be taken to Walter Reed Hospital and distributed. I think this is a very small thing we can do to let those soldiers know we appreciate what they have gone through. You can go here for more info.

Thank you so much for the address. The one I had is incorrect so I am glad that I didn't mail my card yet. Love your blog
