Let's Bring 'em Home

Let's Bring 'em home!

No, it's not an antiwar chant, it's a charity organization set up by a former USAF enlistedman to raise money to pay for airfare so enlistedmen with leave can come home for Christmas.

Sure the military provides free rides to and from overseas locations on a "space available' basis, but what about once the serviceman gets home? These folks who are out there putting their lives on the line for America aren't exactly getting rich doing it, so Ernie and the "Let's Bring 'em Home" gang collect money to buy them tickets. Sometimes, the ticket will be used to fly family members over to Germany to visit their wounded enlistedmen who are in the hospital there and can't come home.

If you are reading this, you have time to spare from your life. I'll bet you have a few bucks to spare as well, so skip your drive-through junk food tomorrow morning and instead send the money to these guys who will give our service families the ultimate Christmas present.

As of this afternoon, the LBEH fund is $5600 behind in donations. Every little bit helps! Stop by www.lbeh.org and donate today!
