Supporting The Military

From Yahoo News:
"White House joins forces to support military families"

^ This program seems good on paper, but it will be harder to start and keeping people interested. I am curious to know why this wasn't done a long time ago since the wars have been going on for almost 10 years (in Afghanistan) and 8 years (in Iraq.)

People tend to forget the military and their families, but you would hope the government that creates the wars and puts people in harm's way wouldn't. A lot more needs to be done by both the Federal, State, Local Governments and ordinary people in support of soldiers and their families. ^
