Honor The Fallen
I found this over at Smokin's STH
A California nonprofit group is promoting a way to honor those killed in Iraq and Afghanistan - and to help the families they left behind. Bracelets made of silicone, inscribed with "Honor The
Fallen," are being sold for $3 by the Honor The Fallen Foundation.
Last year that group conceived the Honor the Fallen Memorial Quilt, which is being created out of 3-by 6-foot panels made by families and friends of the war's dead, including those killed in
the Pentagon in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
The bracelets, which come in black and blue, are available at the group's Web site, www.honorthefallen.org/store.shtml . "The black [bracelet] was created mainly so that
military people could wear it without having a really strong color stand out,"
said Robina Slizeski, administrative assistant to Dave Cruz, a former Air Force
pararescueman and founder of the Honor The Fallen Foundation.
All proceeds will go directly to the foundation to support its missions of creating the quilt and providing
grants to families of those killed in the war on terrorism.
