Do you know a soldier? Information to pass on...
A reader sent this to me recently and I wanted to post about it to try and help to get the word out about this program that was passed by the Massachusetts legislature.
It is called, The Welcome Home Bonus and it is a payment of $1000.00 to soldiers... "who have at least 3 years active duty service since 9/11/01, who live or have lived in the Commonwealth [of MA] for 6 months prior to that date and who have served in Iraq or Afghanistan since then."
If you know of any soldiers who might be eligible for this bonus, please pass this information on to them and point them to the details of the program which can be found here:

Thanks to "Dunndee" for passing this info on to me. I am happy to do my small part to try and spread the word about this. I would also like to add a special thanks to Dunndee for his service to our country.
Thank you.
Thanks for posting that info and passing it on. We (in the royal sense) really appreciate it.
