Recently Marines in Iraq wrote to Starbucks because they
wanted to let them know how much they liked their coffees and to request
that they send some of it to the troops there.
Starbucks replied, telling the Marines thank you for their
support of their business, but that Starbucks does not support the war,
nor anyone in it, and that they would not send the troops their brand of
coffee.
So as not to offend Starbucks, maybe we should not support
them by buying any of their products!
As a war vet writing to fellow patriots, I feel we should get
this out in the open. I know this war might not be very popular with
some folks, but that doesn't mean we don't support the boys on the
ground fighting street-to-street and house-to-house for what they and

I believe is right.
If you feel the same as I do then pass this along, or you can
discard it and no one will never know.
Thanks very much for your support. I know you'll all be there
again when I deploy once more.

PLEASE DON'T DELETE THIS ... ALLOW IT TO BE PASSED TO ALL IN MEMORY OF
ALL THE TROOPS WHO HAVE DIED SO THAT WE MAY HAVE THE RIGHT TO CHOOSE TO
SUPPORT THEM OR NOT!!!
