DENZEL WASHINGTON: One you won't hear in the news!

Subject: Denzel Washington---Another Story you won't find in the news!

I like to think this should be the way the world works, unfortunately it is aside from the norm.

Patriots are usually quiet, unassuming people who go about doing what they do with a heart filled with love and pride in their Country. Their actions speak louder than words.

Salute to you Mr. Denzel Washington, may your son and all of our country's sons and daughters come home safely! Thank you for a job well done!

Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC (Brooke Army Medical Center, in San Antonio,Texas) the other day. This is where soldiers that have been evacuated from Germany come to be hospitalized in the States, especially burn victims.

They have buildings there called Fisher Houses. The Fisher House is a hotel that soldiers' families can stay at, for little or no charge, while their soldier is staying in the hospital. BAMC has quite a few of these houses on base, but as you can imagine, they are almost filled to the brim most of the time.

While Denzel Washington was visiting BAMC, they gave him a tour of one of the Fisher Houses. He asked how much one of them would cost to build. He got his check book out and wrote a check out for the full amount right there on the spot.

{ Washington has a son who is a Marine in Iraq. (NOTE: This part is not true per www.snopes.com )

What's really interesting is that the son of a rich Hollywood star is a Marine on the ground in Iraq, with little to no fanfare... }
