Operation Thanksgiving Eagle
The mission of Operation Thanksgiving Eagle (OTE) is to thank children of the military for the daily sacrifices they make on behalf of our freedom. Through OTE, copies of the book It's a Family Thanksgiving! are donated to children of the military around the globe. OTE also conducts pre-Thanksgiving educational events on military bases for children and their families and educators.
Over 200 copies of It's a Family Thanksgiving! A Celebration of an American Tradition for Children and Their Families by Debbie Fink have been sent to commands worldwide so that deployed service members may participate in Operation Thanksgiving Eagle (OTE) by reading age-appropriate sections aloud on DVD to their children, nieces, nephews, or siblings.
Author Debbie Fink, in collaboration with Dr. Enid Portnoy, created a "Guide for Reading and a Guide for Recording" specifically for our United Through Reading families so that service members may read sections that highlight the aspects of Thanksgiving traditions that are most important to them and their families.
It's a Family Thanksgiving may be ordered from AUSA Programs at AUSA.org.
