Soldiers: Our Nation's Caregivers

The beauty of reading other's blogs is that you can be inspired to think of something that might not have come to mind otherwise. Until I read these last 2 blog posts (see links), I hadn't really thought of soldiers as our nations caregivers. But After reading the first link (re: care packages), I buzzed about that blog post and that's when it hit me. Like this link re: supporting soldiers overseas, we need to put aside our political opinions and realize that our safety is being developed and provided by soldiers. Since one of our main needs as humans is to live, we need to thank and support our soldiers for making it possible for us to live...and to live in a free country. How do you support soldiers? Do you consider them to be caregivers?? How can we make life easier for them??
