A Holiday Message from SLDN
The holidays can be an especially trying time for our men and women in uniform, and “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” makes this time of year even more difficult for our LGBT service members. The holiday season does not end the often long separations between loved ones and family, and it’s no surprise that calls for assistance to Servicemembers Legal Defense Network tend to increase as the year draws to a close.
This holiday, all of us at SLDN want all of those serving our country to know: you are not alone.
Whether you are serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait or Germany, our thoughts are with you. Whether you are on duty here at home, or serving half a world away, we are grateful for your service. During the holidays, and every day, all of us at SLDN salute you, honor you and fight alongside you. And even though we cannot be with you in person, we are with you in spirit.
The SLDN staff, board and military advisory council also send a heartfelt thank you to the thousands of supporters and donors who make our work possible. Because of your generosity, the men and women we serve never serve alone.
This holiday, SLDN remembers the kindness of our allies and the courage of our troops. Because of you, the New Year is filled with new possibilities.
Happy Holidays.
