GREAT POEM. My ex-wife and I use to have a housefull during the holidays. As a Sgt, I always had fellow airmen who were alone over as members of the family. Our home cooked meals were better than the chow halls, and our duplex suddenly felt like a home.

It is really nice of you to do this. When I was a young soldier I really appreciated it when the families took us in for the holiday meals. I still remember my battalion commander inviting three of his sergeants over to his family's house for Thanksgiving. I just happened to be one of those three. Being alone in the barracks over the holidays is one of the most depressing time periods I can recall. This will be my sister-in-law and brothers first time hosting a holiday meal, so if it goes I might contact MacDill Air Force Base and see if there are any young soldiers, Marines, or airman that might be interested in coming out for Christmas.

Yes, remember our young men and women serving our country!
