We Share Your Hope

Happy New Year to our troops and their families. We wish you a peaceful 2008 blessed with your safe return home!

Today I came across this essay ("Hope Rides Alone") written in February '07 by a U.S. soldier serving in Iraq. Many of you may have already seen it circulating on the Internet, but I thought I would add the link here since the essay is so powerful and direct. Please don't feel that your sacrifices are not respected and appreciated. Hope does not have to ride alone and we will do our best to show our brave military families that we share their hope!

The author of this essay, Sgt. Eddie Jeffers, was killed in Iraq on September 19, 2007, at the age of 23. May we never forget Sgt. Jeffers and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in support of our nation.

God bless,
Charlie
