CNN producer note
ChrisMorrow spent some time with volunteers from Blue Star Mothers, who put together care packages for soldiers deployed abroad. "I remember when my brother was in the Marines during the Gulf War and sending him care packages for his ship and knowing how much it help moral," she said.

The Blue Star Mothers of America know how hard it is to send their children off to war. They send the comforts of home care packages to the service men and women. I visited the Roseville Veterans Hall where volunteers put together 700 care packages. Check out their story.
