it has been awhile since, but we helped out on Kinser chapel for a single marines thanksgiving lunch. us students served the food and played worship songs while they were eating. it was really a time to minister to the military people.
it is statistically said that the suicide rate on base rises around the holidays because the troops start thinking about how much they miss home. they say that almost have of the corps is under 19 years of age. so it is understandable why the suicide rate is at it is because they are just kids away from home.
so keep the troops in your prayers as they are struggling with things too.
