This is an amazing article written by Lt. Sean Walsh about the 4,000 plus military members that have been lost in Iraq and Afghanistan. It is a truly moving piece and I hope you will take the time to read it.

I've added a new website for the military name bracelets at...
http://www.militarynamebracelets.com
You can also continue to order from the MTTA website as well. These bracelets can be customized with your loved one's name and feature all sterling silver components and Swarovski crystals. I also offer a variety of military charms including one for each branch of the military. This is a great way to show support for your family member serving in the military, especially during deployment.

I would love to make a bracelet so that you can honor your loved on serving in the military. Shop now at www.militarynamebracelets.com.
Thank you!
This such a sweet and touching news story. It just proves that anyone can make a difference in the lives of our military servicemembers and their families...and it doesn't have to cost a lot of money!
I have loved Jimmy Buffett for as long as I can remember. We have always tried to get tickets whenever he came remotely close to where we live but never had any luck. They always seemed to be sold out before they even went on sale.
A few days ago, he posted a bulletin on myspace saying there were new concert dates. Sure enough, Atlanta was on the list. The tickets went on sale this morning at 10am. So I've stalked Ticketmaster all morning! The first time I clicked on it, it found two tickets. I was so excited but after I finished putting in my credit card information, it said my request could not be processed at this time. Total excitment went to complete disappointment in no time flat.
I must have searched for tickets another 30 times with no luck before I looked up the phone number. When I called, I figured I was in trouble since the first option was "press 1 for Jimmy Buffett". I called on my house phone and my cell phone at the same time. My house phone turned out to be lucky while the cell phone was a total bust!
I have two tickets to see Jimmy Buffett live! I can't wait! I've been waiting to do this for so long! The concert is just 5 days after my birthday so this will be my 32nd birthday present! I think we'll have to have a cheeseburger in paradise before the concert! ;)
The deadline for the NMFA scholarship is coming up soon - March 15th. This is one of the few scholarships out there that I have found that can be applied for undergraduate and graduate studies. The application process is fairly simple and includes only one "long" essay question. If you've been a military family member for any time at all, I'm sure you'll have no problem at all answering all of the questions.
Don't miss out! I completed my application yesterday so now all toes and fingers are officially crossed!
