The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan cost thousands of lives.  Thousands died while tens of thousands have been wounded in one way or another.  The veterans who made it through the horrors of war, only to come home to a life of dealing with physical injuries, depression and PTSD.  Sadly, the wars are still taking a toll.  Everyday 22 of our veterans commit suicide.  They stood up for us overseas, now we need to stand up for them.

The American Legion is asking for $19 donations to aid in the fight against Veteran suicide.  As a token of thanks, those who make donations will receive a commemorative coin.  Go to http://www.supportlegion.org to help, or call 888-936-6936.  If you are able to help please do.  Our vets need you!
