... from Soldiers' Angels to assist their recovery is through the money raised by this competition . Financial times are uncertain, of course, but that doesn't change the needs out there. This year's theme is "give up something to give to the troops." We may be worried about the future or feeling a financial pinch right now, but how many small luxuries do we spend our money on each week, luxuries that add up?: that $4 cup of gourmet coffee instead of the plain stuff that's free at work ($20 for the week), the $50 movie night out with weekend with the family when $10 would get a ...

Due to the great hearts (sponsors, donors, volunteers and others too numerous to mention) within Soldiers ...

This is apparently the sort of thing we can expect from Team Army when they are behind in a friendly competition !
