the gratitude campaign (short)

How many in your circle of family & friends serve? Have you ever seen one of our military walking past you and wanted to convey to them your thanks, but weren't sure how or it felt awkward? Recently, a gentleman from Seattle created a gesture which could be used and has started a movement to get the word out. Please everybody take just a moment to watch.... The Gratitude Campaign; .......and then tell your friends about this amazingly simple gesture! THEN START USING THE SIGN.
