This month marks the 30th anniversary of Operation Desert Storm, what most Americans remember as “Gulf War I.” As efforts for peace and troop drawdowns in the region remain a priority, we want to recognize the service and sacrifices of our veterans of that war. You are not forgotten. Thank you!

We also wanted to alert you that Valentine’s Day is only three weeks away. Reaching out to loved ones is more important now than ever. Take advantage of great savings with our exclusive 30% OFF 1800Flowers. It’s a member's favorite. Other thoughtful gift ideas include Shari’s Berries for delicious treats, Harry & David for a gift basket & wine combo, Stock Yards for deliciously prepared meals.

Finally, think of one of our major airlines for a Valentine’s/President’s weekend getaway. We highlighted JetBlue today, but check out our Travel & Lifestyle section of the Military Discounts Marketplace for other great ideas.
