I hope this hasn't allready been posted and I'm aloud to post it?

When doing your Christmas cards this year, take one card and send it to
this address. If we pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of
how many cards these wonderful special people who have sacrificed so
much would get.

A Great Idea!!!

When you are making out your Christmas card list this year, please
include the following:

A Recovering American Soldier
c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center
6900 Georgia Avenue, NW
Washington, D.C. 20307-5001

This is really a great idea, I'm going to do it also. Thanks for sharing the idea. Can we pass the address along to family & friends to do the same?

Yes go for it! I received it in an e-mail myself.

While it is a great idea the soldiers will never see your cards if they are addressed to A Recovering American Soldier. I sent 25 last year to that address and they were all returned. Please see the following link for the correct way to send cards.

Thanks for posting that link. I though it sounded really good and never checked it out through snopes (which I usually do when I receive e-mails before re-posting or sending).
