KINGWOOD'S BLUE STAR MOMS COLLECTING COTTON BLANKETS FOR WOUNDED SOLDIERS

"Flags Real Estate and the Kingwood Blue Star Mom’s are once again teaming up to help our American Soldiers.
Wounded American Soldiers are in need of cotton blankets. The current blankets supplied to them are wool and not comforting on fresh wounds. The local chapter of Blue Star Mom’s will be collecting the donated blankets for the appropriate Military personal and immediately ship them to Iraq.
The local Blue Star Mom’s President Susan Lunson says “The people who will benefit from these blankets are the wounded soldiers at Balad Air Base. There is a field hospital that triages injured soldiers and makes them ready be sent to Germany for further care on C-17 cargo planes. They wait in huts or tents until they leave. Right now they only have wool blankets, soft cotton blankets could make them more comfortable”."
