May Was National Military Appreciation Month

Kay MacVey is 82 a member of American Legion Auxiliary Unit 32, Ames, Iowa, where she and other members clipped #349,000 in coupons during 2007 and gave them to military families, for redemption at commissaries. "The families really enjoy using them, and it saves them a lot of money, especially on baby food and diapers", says the great-great grandmother. It takes several hours a week, but she doesn't mind at all. "Theres a lot of things I cant do at this age, but this I can do". AARP Bulletin, May, 2008, pg 8.
