2. TAPS does wonderful work for the survivors.

On Sunday, TAPS welcomed 15 U.S. children of fallen service members, for a special Good Grief Camp with 44 children from the IDF Widows & Orphans Organization (Israel Defense Forces Widows and Orphans Organization). The American and Israeli tweens and teens attending the camp in Washington, D.C., bonded quickly over their shared experiences. They created handprints for a memorial wreath that they placed yesterday at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery .





Thankful Thursday: TAPS is thankful for the support of the The Army Marathon! TAPS was selected as a beneficiary of this inaugural event, and we are so grateful! We look forward to many more successful years as a partner of this growing event. Thank you Army Marathon!

Thank you as well to Kreutz Photography for the photo.

Wonderful that the Bidens highlight their work. Yes the audio did make me cry a little. Thanks Cha.
