twitterLetter: Time to genuinely support our troops
Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2006 | 7:32 a.m.
"Support our troops" is a meaningless phrase when our troops leaving the battlefield are suffering about 8 percent unemployment and some are entering the homeless population with undiagnosed illness.
Support our troops and support our veterans, particularly our homeless veterans!
Frank Perna, Las Vegas
Editor's note: The writer is an activist for homeless people, especially for veterans.
