Games For Heroes Charity
Whether or not you agree with the United States’ aggressive military actions abroad, you have to admit that the situation for many soldiers is a rather poor one. Many servicemen and women are in relatively desolate places like Iraq and Afghanistan where along with the impending danger surrounding them there’s another severe adversary: boredom. There’s not much point to free time if there’s nothing to do, and as anyone with a basic understanding of military strategy knows, keeping morale amongst the troops high is a good thing. Peter Gallagher and Jack Wilson, both high school students, have started a charity intended to keep our troops spirits high and give them a break from the looming threats all around them. Called “Games For Heroes”, the website details the charity’s efforts to provide overseas soldiers (many of whom are young, generally 18-20) with handheld gaming devices.
