Thank a Veteran or Active Duty Service Member

Brett Leveridge

May is “National Military Appreciation” month. Please join us in letting all of the brave soldiers and veterans who have sacrificed so much that they are not forgotten and that they are truly loved and appreciated. Please help us with our goal to reach out to as many soldiers, wounded warriors and veterans as we can with our heartfelt thanks by sharing this slideshow with family and friends.

Together we can make sure our courageous soldiers and veterans know how much we appreciate their sacrifice and their bravery. Let us not forget that because of their courage, commitment and sacrifice, our flag continues to fly proudly over our nation.

Guideposts is honored to be of service to military members, veterans, and their families by sharing our inspirational publications and lifting service members in prayer. We invite you to join us by donating Guideposts subscriptions to those who serve.

Thanks to our American heroes, whose devotion is second to none, whose courage and braveness alone caused many battles to be won. Only because of you and the price you willingly did pay, only because of you, Old Glory still flies today!
