The Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs has a great site that provides Minnesota Veterans, their families and employers a one stop location for information or links available for veterans. The site has a Support Our Troops & Veterans page that lists organizations and ways to help all our troops and their families, regardless of what state they're from.
I'll add, in my angry voice, that if we, as a nation, ever treat troops the way my father was treated when he came home from his two tours in Vietnam, I'm leaving. Y'all can come along if you want.
I am a Hot Chick living in Parker, CO with my fabulous family. We're currently without a dog since we lost our beloved Boogie the Giant Schnauzer. I'm a U.S. Navy vet, and I currently work as a Principal Systems Engineer in the Military Industrial Complex, specializing in VoIP and Next Generation 9-1-1 technologies. I care about science, the U.S. Constitution and the military. I'm a tax and spend liberal in a largely red county, but I try not to be stabby about it. I travel A LOT, I aspire to run faster than I do, and I donate knitted cold weather gear to various charities. Stupidity, cupidity and wanton assholery piss me off, and I'm more than a little soft when it comes to dogs and those who serve others. I blog about whatever I feel like. I use foul language, so if that sort of thing offends you, feel free to fuck off now - if I'm unwilling to clean up my language for my fabulous Great Auntie Margie, I'm unlikely to do so for you. Newcomers are welcome here, especially those who disagree with me, but trolling and spamming will be met with the Shovel of Doom™.

Thank you to all who have served.
I, for one, never forget.
Yes, thank you!
And my keyboard is dripping wet right now, I didn't have kleenex handy. :P
Yeah, I'm a blubbering idiot, too.
I remember.

puddling must run in the family.

Shawn, I'll join you. I'm thinking British Columbia...
I kept a stiff upper lip until the uncle with the Ernie doll in his flack jacket. Thanks for the runny nose, Janiece.
Shawn, I'll be right behind you.
We aim to serve. In every way.
