Support Those Serving Our Country

To all Current and Past United States Soldiers:

Thank You for What You Have Done, What You Are Doing, and What You Continue to Do!

During this holiday season, Army photo the UTSA Library would like to extend a thank you to all of the troops that are currently serving our country as well as those that have served in the past.

The holiday season is a time when friends and family gather together, but, for U.S. soldiers currently serving, the season isn't always so bright. However, corresponding, sending a care package, and supporting military families are all great ways to make the season brighter... and many can be done with a simple mouse click!

Correspond
