Ban Toy Soldier Cupcakes

MIL-STD-03-13-2013

They are a menace which threaten the sanctity of gun free zones and weapons policy!

A look at how two brothers both special forces / special ops coped with coming home:

You saw the trailer earlier here on the blog… this is the full feature.

It’s really worth watching to see how much some soldiers sacrifice both physically and mentally.  (TBI) Traumatic Brain Injury and (PTSD) Post Traumatic Stress Disorder are just a sample of non visible injuries soldiers come home with.

It’s really good to see these guys giving back, and trying to help their own.
