Wounded soldiers need help with calling cards

Our wounded GIs at the Walter Reed Army Hospital need your help. In order to make long-distance calls home, the soldiers need to use calling cards. The hospital has let it be known that donations of calling cards in any denomination would be very welcome.

If you want to donate a card, send it to:
WRAMC
Att. Family Assistance Center
6900 Georgia Avenue
Bldg. 2/Room 3E01
Washington DC 20307

Is there any particular calling card wanted, or does it not matter?
Thanks.

The best and by far easiest way to help out with calling card is through the Marine Corp website. They have setup a special account to allow us average (none military!) folks to donate cards to the troops - injured, or in the middle East, or a specific person. They have a cut rate, bulk discount price already negotiated so this way really does get the best deal.

What an awesome Christmas present for your family to give Very Happy
