Happy Valentines Special Gifts for our Troops

For the second year in a row, soldiers serving in Iraq will receive special Valentine's Day gifts from Pennsylvania.

Volunteers in York County packed boxes full of goodies to send to the troops.

The York-based nonprofit group SOAR, which stands for Support Our American Recruits, sends the gifts for Valentine's Day because it reminds the troops that people are still thinking of them after the holidays.

"I enjoy doing it because I know it puts a smile on their face to know that someone is thinking about them," said Becky Bair who runs the York-based group.

Some of the goodies were donated, but SOAR also raised $3,000 that went toward buying the snacks.

SOAR expects to supply valentines treats to about 1,000 soldiers.
