Blue Friday~ For our Troops

Hi Folks..

This was posted on a forum I am a member of and I wanted to share it with ya'll..
It sure seems like such an easy thing to do to honor those who do so much for us..
thanks for reading..


Blue Fridays.
Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing blue every Friday. The reason? Americans who support our troops used to be called the 'silent majority' We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for God, country and home in record breaking numbers We are not organized, boisterous or overbearing.

Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to recognize that the vast majority of    America supports our troops. Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with dignity and respect starts this Friday -- and continues each and every Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that every  red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar, will wear something blue. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the    United States on every Friday a sea of blue much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers. If every one of us who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, coworkers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the    USA is covered in BLUE and it will let our troops know the once 'silent' majority is on their side more than ever, certainly more than the media lets on. The first thing a soldier says when asked 'What can we do to make things better for you?' is .'We need your support and your prayers.' Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by example, and wear something blue every Friday.

Thanks so much.  I wish each and every one of you a wonderful weekend.

  2. I have not heard about this and can definitely say we will participate. What a tremendous idea. (Unless you know Jilly the previous commenter, I would be reluctant to click that link. Just saying.....)
