As parents of servicemen who are serving and have been in Iraq and Afganistan, we would very much like to Thank Mr. Gary Sinise and his dedication to all of our armed service men and women. Heroes like Mr. Sinise this day and age are refreshing and inspiring to the rest of us supporting our armed forces. The way Mr. Sinise has choosen to show his support is original, meaningful, and fun.
God Bless you Gary Sinise for all you do, and Thank You for spreading the message of love and support to our service men and women to Wisconsin!
