Red Shirts
If the Red shirt thing is new to you, read below...
Last week, while traveling to Chicago on business, I noticed a Marine
sergeant traveling
with a folded flag, but did not put two and two together.
After we boarded our flight, I turned to the sergeant, who had been
invited to sit in
First Class (across from me), and inquired if he was heading home.< BR
'No,' he responded.
'Heading out?' I asked.
'No. I'm escorting a soldier home.'
'Going to pick him up?'
'No. He is with me right now. He was killed in Iraq , I'm taking him home
to his family.'
The realization of what he had been asked to do hit me like a punch to
the gut. It was an honor for him. He told me that although he didn't know the soldier, he had
delivered the news of his death to the soldier's family and felt as if he knew them
after many conversations in so few days.
I turned back to him, extended my hand, and said, 'Thank you. Thank you
for doing what you do so that my family and I can do what we do.'
Upon landing in Chicago the pilot stopped short of the gate and made the
following announcement over the intercom.
'Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to note that we have had the honor of
having Sergeant Steeley of the United States Marine Corps join us on this flight. He is
escorting a fallen comrade back home to his family. I ask that you please remain in your
seats when we open the forward door to allow Sergeant Steeley to deplane and receive his
fellow soldier. We will then turn off the seat belt sign.'
Without a sound, all went as requested. I noticed the sergeant saluting
the casket as it was brought off the plane, and his action made me realize that I am proud
to be an American.
So here's a public 'Thank You' to our military Men and Women for what
you do so we can live the way we do:
Red Fridays.
Very soon, you will see a great many people wearing red every Friday.
The reason?
Americans who support our troops used to be called the 'silent
majority.' We are no longer silent, and we 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 it continues each and every Friday until the troops all return home, sending a deafening message: that every red-blooded American who supports our men and women afar will wear
something red.
By word of mouth, press, TV -- let's make the United States on every
Friday a sea of red much like a homecoming football game in the bleachers. If every one of us
who loves this country will share this with acquaintances, co-workers, friends, and family, it will not be long before the USA is covered in red and it will let our troops know
that 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 red every Friday.
IF YOU AGREE -- THEN PLEASE SEND THIS ON.
IF YOU COULDN'T CARE LESS -- THEN HIT THE DELETE BUTTON
(and try to face yourself in the mirror...)

Both the DAV and VFW have supported the idea of wearing red on Fridays to honor all military, past and present.
This started probably (?) 5 yrs ago. I found out about it and have worn a red T shirt almost every Fri since. I belong to both the DAV & VFW.
Get on board everyone!!!
