Military Survivor Organization Wants Boots
FORT CAMPBELL, Ky. (AP) – A group working on behalf of the families
of soldiers is seeking military boots in any condition to represent fallen
soldiers.
Each boot received will represent a fallen service member as part of
a display that will be put together by volunteers, hopefully in time for
“Gold Star Week,” Oct. 27 to Nov. 1. That’s when Fort Campbell hosts
surviving family members for a series of events including the Hero and
Remembrance Run, Walk or Roll event.
Survivor Outreach Services Director Suzy Yates told The
Leaf-Chronicle (http://leafne.ws/1B8T0lZ ) donations of desert boots,
jungle boots, cold-weather boots, jump boots from any era are welcome
Boots can be mailed into the Army Community Services SOS office
located at 2703 Michigan Ave., Fort Campbell, Kentucky 42223 at Fort
Campbell via FedEx or UPS.
