I wear my red on Fridays and make sure I tell people why. A simple gesture perhaps, but our troops deserve our support and recognition. My son is an infantry soldier. His perseverance, strength and dedication are never far from my mind.
I always wear Red on fridays,my heart and my mind think of nothing else but my son over seas,,and to show and share my support for our brave men and women,,come home safe!
