Honoring the Lost SEALs

My old friend Virginia Delegate Chris Saxman (R) sent along the following info regarding a way to honor the Navy SEALs recently killed in Afghanistan. The events today in London during morning rush hour remind us that this is a very real war with no clear boundary lines, and we must support those who risk (and sacrifice) their lives to protect us. I'll just quote Sax from here on out:

"I have recently learned from a friend closely associated with the SEAL community that there is a very appropriate way to honor the SEALs recently lost in combat in Afghanistan.

The Navy Special Warfare Foundation is collecting funds that can be used to either assist in the cost of the Memorial Service for these fine men, or, funds which can be used to assist the families of these men. The Memorial Service, to be held this Friday, is expected to draw close to 3,000 people...

Please take action today, right now, so that on Friday those families will know that we really do support those fighting on the front lines. Tax deductible contributions can be mailed to:
