I have been volunteering for the Yellow Ribbon Fund for over 2 yrs. Last summer I took my 16 yr old daughter to help out on a Saturday. Like most whiney teenagers she said it was too hot but then I introduced her to a kind Solider and her mother. This mother told my daughter to be very thankful that her mother cares enough to bring her and that she appreciates her visiting. This has convinced my daughter that she wants to be a military nurse. This is how one day can make a world of difference. It made the soliders day and my daughters. It is such a honor/humbling experience to be able to assist our wounded warriors. I am glad to give even after serving 20 years in the US Navy.
