Holiday Mail for Heroes

With the holiday season approaching people are once again thinking about sending holiday cards, and for many this includes sending greetings to our soldiers.  In years past you could send cards to a random soldier by mailing them to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center.  Since Walter Reed merged with the National Naval Medical Center in 2011, that program has been taken over and run by the Red Cross.  The FAQ page below gives the address to which cards should be mailed:

In recognition of Halloween, why not stop by the Red Cross and donate a pint of blood while you're out shopping for your cards.
