Veterans Day 2011 ... San Jose CA

December 9, 2011

San Jose had another great parade this year.  The cold and rain kept the crowds away somewhat which was unfortunate.

May is National Military Appreciation Month Photobucket

May 1, 2010

This May is the 12th Annual National Military Appreciation Month.  Here is the official website to commemorate the occasion.  

http://www.nmam.org/

You'll find lots of good information on Military and Veterans organizations and supporters, as well as information on the month's events celebrating in honor of our military men and women and their long history of service to the U.S.A.

 I will be adding to this post as I find more information.

But to start ... 

One way to support our military and its veterans is to go to Pepsi Refresh Project and vote for the military/veterans projects that are currently up for a vote ... a vote from you ... the public.  Just go to the search window on the PepsiRefresh home page and type in military, warrior, WWII, veteran, Iraq or Afghanistan and you will be led to projects whose goal is to help our military/veterans with a wide variety of needs.  You can vote for up to 10 projects a day.  

Wouldn't this be a wonderful way to say thank you to our Military by dedicating ourselves to casting 10 votes a day to help these groups win a grant of 250k, 50k, 25k or 5k.

Link to Pepsi Refresh:

http://www.refresheverything.com/index

 Please take the time to vote ....
