American Sniper Blu-Ray/DVD combo MEMORIAL DAY GIVEAWAY
Today we remember those who have served so bravely in our armed forces to protect our freedom throughout the years. My dad served in the Navy, my sister currently serves in the Air Force. Another of those soldiers was Chris Kyle, a Navy SEAL, who served four tours of duty in Iraq before coming home and finding his way back to his family. I'm sure you have heard of him.
Kyle is portrayed by Bradley Cooper in "American Sniper." My husband and I had the opportunity to watch this movie together in our home. I don't want to give a lot away in the plot, but this was a really powerful movie for me. Seeing circumstances portrayed from Iraq in the years after 9/11 were more than I expected. Kyle's service and how that service to our country (and ultimately us as US citizens) affected him mentally was heartbreaking. Imagining how his wife and children handled his service was really impacting to me as a mother.
We really enjoyed watching this movie, sharing in this man's life, and crying over his untimely death. The only part I didn't enjoy was the cursing throughout, but I've come to realize war movies will have that. It doesn't take away from the movie itself or the life of Kyle.
From now until 12/31/15, $1 from the purchase of every movie (perhaps of the Blu-Ray/DVD/Digital copy) will be donated to the Wounded Warrior Project (up to $1,000,000. Void in AL, HI, IL, MA, MS, and SC). This organization helps soldiers who have been wounded as they transition back to civilian life. What a neat opportunity we have to help those who have sacrificially given to our freedoms.
Grace Hill Media, my partners in this giveaway, have given me two extra copies to give to my dad and my sister to thank them for their service to our country. I'm excited to get these to them. In addition, one of you will be lucky enough to win a copy of your own of "American Sniper" on Blu-Ray/DVD.
