In a world of madness where sports stars are thumbing their nose at the greatness of our nation, there is one country artist who has gained fame singing with his brothers Steve and Rudy also known as the Gatlin Brothers who is named Larry Gatlin who is doing his part to assist families of fallen soldiers by donating a portion of the profits from a running/walking sneaker from the Newton Running Company which is based in Boulder Colorado.
The sneaker that is sold by Newton Running which has a patriot theme sells for $150 dollars.
However the company will donate $50 each to the charity called Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS) to assist families who lose their loved ones in the service of their nation.
It is nice to see artists who appreciate the sacrifices that our brave men and women have done to allow the Gatlin Brothers their freedom to record their music.

It's a good thing people are around to help veterans. I wonder what veterans from my country are doing.

I agree with you that our U S veterans are getting help from concerned people, Hopefully in your nation, they will follow the example led by the Gatlin Brothers.

Kudos to them. Feeding their brothers and sisters out of their sacrifices is a great work in the eyes of man and God. They love their neighbors as they love themselves.
