When filling out your Christmas cards this year, take one card and send it to this address:

A Recovering American Soldier, c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 6900 Georgia Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20307-5001.

If we pass this on and everyone sends one card, think of how many cards these wonderful, selfless people, who have sacrificed so much would get. Please copy and post on your wall ♥

"You Can't Actually Send Christmas Cards to ‘A Recovering Soldier,' Despite Viral Claims"

"The only problem is, such letters can't actually be sent anywhere.

According to the U.S. Postal Service, mail can only be sent to servicemembers "if you have the name and address.""

I contacted my Navy buddy about this, because he works at Walter Reed, and he was looking into another way to do this. He hasn't contacted me back yet. He did say there were very little wounded soldiers currently at the hospital.
