The military, its veterans and those on active duty are subjects close to my heart. I have three uncles who served in World War II (Army infantry, Navy pilot and submarine commander). My brother served in the U.S. Army / armor division for 12 years and one of his sons is currently on active duty as a Marine aviator (F-18 pilot).
I am pleased to help a friend (The Happy Housewife) spread the word today about this service for the benefit of our servicemen and women:
Wounded Warrior Project
The Wounded Warrior Project’s goals are:
- To raise awareness and enlist the public’s aid for the needs of severely injured service men and women,
- To help severely injured service members aid and assist each other, and
- To provide unique, direct programs and services to meet the needs of severely injured service members.

Read the Meet the Warriors section of the site. Each one of these soldiers had a reason to fight, a reason to live, and were prepared to die. These warriors not only had a physical loss, they lost their military careers as well. The Wounded Warrior Project is a great resource for those who are leaving the military due to an injury.
