I supported my Nation with over 20 years of faithful service. My wife has 18 in and just got back from over there. While she was there, I sent her everything I could think of to make it bearable to include a live Chrsitmas tree! I still have many Brothers and Sisters over there. Troops who I trained. And I gave them 110% when I was training them. Thats what I have done to support them. They are also prayed for every day in a loud, orderly, military manner! God bless them all!

i think it does because if we do not support them the troops will get demoralised and fight worse. and if they fight worse they can either have more causualties that will weaken are defences, it can also make are troops look bad so other countrys will attack us even though we will kick there a!s , or it will make less people join the military because a part of joining is the honor and if civilians do not like are troops then no one would want to join due to no support , and if we have less troops then it will make us weaker

We have a nephew in the Ramadi area. We send him stuff every week to ten days. We make sure to send enough for him to share.
The military in Iraq are protecting us. If they weren't drawing the Jihadists there, the Jihadists would be plotting to hit the US more quickly and often. They are set now on driving us from the Middle East.

We support my son by sending letters and care packages. We give everyone who knows him his address and encourage them to write and to pray for him. We also realize that he's not the only one who needs support so although we can't help everyone over there, we do what we can for my son's platoon. My daughter made up bags of Halloween candy for them and sent it. She also had everyone she knows sign a card for the guys for Veteran's Day.

By trying to get them to places where they are actually defending my freedom, instead of being part of a major cluster **** in Iraq.
