Don't kno w[b] whether you heard about this [/b]
but Denzel Washington and his family visited [b]
the troops at[/b][b] [/b][b]Brook Army Medic al Center,[/b][b] [/b][b]in
San Antonio,Texas (BAMC) the other day. This
is where soldiers who have been evacuated from
Germany come to be hospit al ized in the United
States, especi al ly burn victims. There are some
buildings there c al led [/b][b]Fisher Houses[/b][b]. The Fisher
House is a Hotel where soldiers' families can stay,
for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying
in the Hospit al . BAMC has quite a few of these houses
on base, but as you can imagine, they are al most filled
most of the time.
While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave
him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how
much one of them would cost to build. He took his check
book out and wrote a check for the full amount right there
on the spot. The soldiers overseas were amazed to hear
this story and want to get the word out to the American
public, because it warmed their hearts to hear it. [/b][b]

The question I have is why do:[/b][b]
Alec B al dwin, [/b][b] [/b][b]
Madonna,[/b][b] [/b][Image: ShowLetter?box=Inbox&MsgId=4480_2938035_...ad=b&Idx=0]
Sean Penn [Image: ShowLetter?box=Inbox&MsgId=4480_2938035_...ad=b&Idx=0] and
other Hollywood types [Image: ShowLetter?box=Inbox&MsgId=4480_2938035_...ad=b&Idx=0]
make front page news with their anti-everything
America trash and Denzel Washington's Patriotism
doesn't even make page 3 in the Metro section of
any newspaper except the Loc al newspaper in San
Antonio .
