Will You Wear Blue?

From Dad & Kay.
Doing my duty for the brave men and women of this country, and for the United States of America.
Blue Fridays.
Very soon, you
will see a great many people wearing blue every Friday. The reason?
Americans who support our troops used to be called the 'silent
majority' We are no longer silent, and are voicing our love for God,
country and home in record breaking numbers. We are not organized,
boisterous or overbearing.
Many Americans, like you, me and all our friends, simply want to
recognize that the vast majority of America supports our
troops. Our idea of showing solidarity and support for our troops with
dignity and respect starts this Friday -- and continues each and every
Friday until the troops all come home, sending a deafening message that
every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar, will
wear something blue. By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United States
on every Friday a sea of blue much like a homecoming football game in
the bleachers. If every one of us who loves this country will share
this with acquaintances, coworkers, friends, and family, it will not be
long before the USA
is covered in BLUE and it will let our troops know the once 'silent'
majority is on their side more than ever, certainly more than the media
lets on. The first thing a soldier says when asked 'What can we do to
make things better for you?' is .'We need your support and your
prayers.' Let's get the word out and lead with class and dignity, by
example, and wear something blue every Friday.
