According to Wikipedia, The military of the United States is deployed in more than 150 countries around the world, with more than 369,000 of its 1,379,551 active-duty troops serving outside the United States and its territories. U.S. troops are seeing active combat in several countries, most notably Afghanistan and Iraq. Others are deployed as part of several peacekeeping missions.
The military of the United States not only defends our Freedoms, but has fought to provide freedom for countries all over the world. Even now, our servicemen and women are being used to provide aid and relief to the Earthquake region of Haiti - part of America's ongoing humanitarian service.
When was the last time you said Thank you to one of our Military?
Many of our families have those serving our Country - why don't you thank them? There are some serving that have no family - why don't you thank them? Write them a letter - send them an email.
It seems like such a small thing to do. However, simply saying thank you let's them know you haven't forgotten them and you appreciate their sacrifice in serving.
So this week's Nudge is simply this - Thank someone in the Military for their service. Send them a letter or email. Let them know you appreciate their sacrifice and service.

For families that have someone serving in the Military - if you will, post up email or snail mail addresses where we can contact your family member.
Let's Nudge the World this week by encouraging those who make our World a bit safer!
