Is This Another Hoax?

Snopes says I gave the wrong address but that holiday cards are INDEED WELCOME! Cards should be sent to: Holiday Mail for Heroes; PO Box 5456; Capitol Heights, Md 20791-5456. All cards must be postmarked by Wednesday, December 10, 2008 and MUST BE SIGNED. Do NOT include email or return addresses, nor any inserts (including photos, etc.) and please, no more than 25 cards from any one person nor 50 from any class or group. The Red Cross hopes to distribute 1 million pieces of holiday mail through this program.

Dixie says, "The bit about sending a Christmas card to a ?recovering soldier? is indeed NOT true. There are a couple of ?takes? on it. Perhaps you?ll want to check these links:<br> <a href="http://www.breakthechain.org/">breakthechain.org</a> (you?ll have to scroll down a bit to find the article). <br> <a href="http://ss659.fusionbot.com/cgi-bin/ss_query?keys=Christmas+card+to+recovering+soldiers&sitenbr=120222903">Check this link for the truth</a>."<br><br> Dixie Lee reports, "Tucson where gas is $2.15 today."<br>

Anita says, "I had heard of that Christmas card thing (address to no particular soldier) but learned that is a hoax and the cards will be returned to the sender."
