Public Service Announcement
I’ve been receiving a lot of emails over the last few weeks that encourage sending Xmas/holiday cards to “Any Soldier” at Walter Reed Army Medical Center. Please don’t do this! Walter Reed will NOT deliver mail addressed to anonymous or “any soldier”. [cite Snopes and Walter Reed]
The good news is that you can still get cards to wounded soldiers. Walter Reed has a list of organizations you may contact. I recommend Operation: Quiet Comfort which is operated by some wonderful people in the crafting community. They deliver cards and care packages to over 40 combat hospitals.
That is all. Carry on.
