Help a Soldier Get Back Home

Soldiers are being given two-week breaks at short notice to return home to their families. But the military only flies them as far as three U.S. airports, and the troops or their families have to foot the bill for expensive last-minute tickets to get the rest of the way home. With so many military families struggling to make ends meet, such tickets are often an impossible expense.

Thanks to a website set up by Rep. Dutch Ruppersberger (D-MD), Americans can now donate their frequent flier miles to soldiers who need them to get home.

To donate your frequent flier miles, visit http://heromiles.org. But please make sure to tell us how many miles you donated using the form below:
