Special Operations Units of the Military (Delta, Seals, Green Beret, Air Force and Marine Special Forces) have made this day possible. Although many times they are forced to operate in the shadows and avoid taking credit for their actions.

I ask that you take a look at the following link: www.specialops.org to learn of the Special Operations Warrior Foundation. This foundation has received a 4 star rating from Charity Navigator for the last 5 years (Only 5% of charities qualify for this distinction).

The Special Operations Warrior Foundation provides full scholorship grants and educational and family counseling to the surviving children of Special Operations personnel who die in operational or training missions and immediate financial assistance to severely wounded Special Operations personnel and their families.

I ask that you consider making a donation to this worthwhile charity as a small way for us to show our gratitude. Thanks.

I'm going to log on to their site a bit later this morning. Yes a big thanks to our special forces and our military. Unfortunately I will be flying in two days and I'm sure the boarding will be on special alert. Glad they got the SOB.
