Guardian Angels for Soldiers Pets

Ever think about what happens to a soldiers pet if he or she is called to active duty in a foreign country?

I just read in a small local publication called the Port Ludlow Voice, about a program to foster pets of soldiers who are being deployed, or have an emergency situation. This is done through the Military Pet Assistance Program to arrange foster care for the pet, with the plan to reunite them upon the soldier's return home.

It is called the " Guardian Angels for Soldiers Pets." Applicants are carefully screened to make sure they will provide a safe and loving home and a secure environment. For more information you can go to

Last month one of our favorite Realtors was hit by a car while riding her recently purchased motorcycle. She had multiple injuries and broken bones, and tho she is in a wheelchair her spirit is still in tact and she sounds great.

Recently an e-mail went out to our board to find help with building her a ramp to get in and out of her home. Before I could even think about it, the answer came from the "Bluebills", a local organization of retired Boeing employess living on the Olympic Peninsula.

Port Ludlow Bluebills

Organized in 1996 as a part of the Boeing Retiree Program and named after Bill Boeings 1915 plane, called the Bluebill. Their main focus is helping those in need with various building needs in the line of rehab and repairs. They currently have 1500 members and work all over the Olympic Peninsula, repairing, moving families, and organizing Christmas charity.
