United State's Military - Support Our Troops

 


 

In an effort to support our troops and avail our residents a means to show their support also, Wayne Township has researched and conferred with public affairs offices of our military branches to determine the most appropriate way.  While it is considered against the interests of national security to post personal information about those residents of Wayne who are actively serving in our military, the following web sites provide information and suggested ways to show support.

 

Donate a calling card to help keep service members in touch with their families: www.operationuplink.org.

You may also use any of the three Armed Service Exchange web sites:

Army and Air Force Exchange Service - http://www.aafes.com

Navy Exchange Service Command - http://www.navy-nex.com

Marine Corps Exchange - http://www.usmc-mccs.org

 

Send a greeting via e-mail through Operation Dear Abby: http://anyservicemember.navy.mil or www.OperationDearAbby.net.

 

Show your support to deployed troops and their families with gift certificates:

 

The "Gift of Groceries" program allows anyone to purchase commissary gift certificates at http://www.commissaries.com or by calling toll-free 1-877-770-GIFT. You can purchase gift certificates to the Armed Services Exchanges - "Gift From the Homefront" - from the http://www.aafes.com and http://navy-nex.com web sites. These certificates can be mailed to the service members and family members or will be distributed to "any service member."

 

Sign a virtual thank you card at the Defend America Web site: http://www.defendamerica.mil.

 

Make a donation to one of the military relief societies:
