Brighten troops’ holiday with ornaments

DEAR MELBA: The HUGS project is still up and running, and our military troops have requested we send them homemade Christmas ornaments again this year. They can be crocheted, knitted, sewed, crafted, etc. We furnish ornaments every Christmas, and the troops take them when they leave for home. These ornaments will be hung on their Christmas trees probably for the next 50 years to remind them and their families that someone cared for them while they were serving a world away.
