Buddy Watch Walk - Pier to Pier

We are VERY pleased with the work that Buddy Watch Walk is doing!! Keep up the great work and thank you for sharing this article. It’s a start.

I am VERY pleased to finally see our Vietnam Veterans receiving the benefits they have earned. But is it really enough now? Most Vietnam Veterans I've met on this journey have given up or have said it's way too late. The message moving forward should be, NEVER again, never again will we allow our Veterans to be treated this way. This is why we🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️ 🇺🇸.

Like their page and follow them! If you live near their walking path - take time out of your day to walk with them, feed them or give them a place to rest.

This is fantastic!

Extra love to those who are not able to make it home that are stationed abroad. ❤️

This is a very dear, personal friend of mine who served with me in the Marine Corps and then continued his service in the Army. Please read the whole thing (not just the headline) and share if you feel compelled to help those that served at K2 get the VA coverage that they need.

There are many other bases like this and other agents we are exposed to as service members.

A new bill would cover the cost of service dogs for veterans with PTSD

If they can also give us the flexibility to use healthcare wherever we want that would also be a great addition. This is a great start - my dogs have saved me on many occasion. ❤️

Lawmakers and veterans advocacy groups are ready for change after waiting nearly a decade for the Department of Veterans Affairs to change its policy on not reimbursing service dogs for veterans…

Arlington National Cemetery

Thank you to the over 38,000 volunteers who joined us for Wreaths Across America today at Arlington National Cemetery. They helped us honor those laid to rest at these hallowed grounds by placing 254,000 wreaths across our 624 acres.

3 Types Of People Everyone Needs In Their Life​

It’s not for everyone and that’s ok. ❤️

🎄 Today I want to hold a little space for the people who aren't feeling merry or joyful & might be wondering how they're gonna get through the holiday season.

The people who lost someone this year and are bracing themselves for the first time without them.

The people who are going home to guaranteed body shaming & fatphobia.

The people whose mental health issues won't magically disappear just because it's Christmas.

The people with eating disorders who are worried about holding onto recovery when everything is so food-centred this time of year.

The people who are struggling to afford every day life and might go into debt trying to keep up with the celebrations.

The queer kids who aren't able to fully be themselves around family because it might not be safe.

The people gathering strength to fight against racist comments round the dinner table.

The people who don't drink anymore and will have to keep explaining why because who doesn't drink over the holidays?

The carers, the retail workers, the hospital staff, everyone working extra time under extra pressure for not enough extra pay.

Anyone who's just feeling overwhelmed and like they can't keep up with it all.

I see you. And I want you to know that it's totally okay to feel exactly how you feel. To get through this year however you can. To protect and preserve yourself whenever you're able to. And to take this season a day at a time. 💜💙💚🌈🌞
