The Department of Veterans Affairs recently announced their "Thank You Note" program to let the troops know that we all care. The note is an electronic card that states simply "Dear Member of the U.S. Military: Thank you for defending our freedom." The note is available on the Internet at www.defendamerica.mil. According to the site, more than 4.8 million people have sent notes to the men and women of the U.S. military.
The Defend America Web site is DoD's official site for news on the war on terrorism. It provides coverage of top national security leaders, as well as photographs, information about weapons and equipment, personality profiles and human-interest features.
