Near Eastside Cats is Selfridge Air National Guard Base, where many serving folk are stationed.

Just being out and about in our area, there are many in uniform to acknowledge and thank for their service.

It would be terrific, however, if we didn't ever have to consider going to war, no?

Combat Cookies

From Combat Cookies website:

"We aim to boost morale of our deployed military members by shipping fresh baked cookies

Combat Cookies is a grass-roots, veteran owned and operated 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. 

We bake and ship fresh from the oven cookies to U.S. military members who are deployed overseas with a mission to increase their morale. 

Being away from the comforts of home can be emotionally challenging. 

Sending cookies is one way to bring the feeling of home to a deployed military member."

Had the distinct pleasure of meeting Brandi and Brandon, the co-originators of Combat Cookies, while at a family gathering recently.

Such kind, loving people, and their military service is such a huge part of their lives.

Please consider a donation or a box of cookies to help Combat Cookies give a moment of joy to our deployed service folks.

I've posted about Combat Cookies for the benefit of the company and service people they help, having received no remuneration or consideration.  

They are a good bunch of people, and I'd like to spread their mission to all.

Thank you, to all our veterans.

The Feeling of Home

🇺🇸Happy Independence Day, America!🇺🇸

Let's reflect upon what got us here:

War

We fought the country that financed us, so we could govern ourselves.

Today, the United States has service people all over the globe, stationed for our own defense, and to aid others.

Want to help those who are far from home?  Please consider:
