“Those who serve in our military deserve our constant thanks. Those who become injured while serving deserve all that we can do for them. Mr. Speaker, I recently learned about a wonderful American organization that is serving wounded servicemembers and their families around the country. The organization is called Luke's Wings, and it has a simple mission: to bring wounded warriors and their families together. For many families of those wounded in combat, traveling to where their wounded spouse or parent or sibling is can be difficult and cost prohibitive. Luke's Wings was established to help families of these servicemembers travel to be with their loved one during his or her hospitalization or rehabilitation. Luke's Wings aids families of wounded servicemembers by purchasing airline tickets so that they can help support and care for their family member while they are receiving treatment. Not only does the assistance that Luke's Wings provides to families of wounded warriors bring these families together, it also helps boost the spirits of and provide additional motivation to recovering servicemembers while their families are at their sides. Especially during this holiday season as we approach Christmas, the work that Luke's Wings is doing is priceless. Not only does it help families visit recovering troops, but they're also helping these same wounded warriors get home for Christmas.…”
