Alec Baldwin Gives College Money To Army Soldier
Actor Alec Baldwin was so moved by the story of an 18-year-old Army soldier who is scheduled to serve in Iraq, he’s going to help pay for her college education after she leaves the military. Hiltzik said the actor would meet the Kane family in Mohave Valley and give them a check, which will be in addition to the $37,000 the Army will give Kane for college. A date for the meeting will be decided next week, he said. Although Baldwin, 48, has been a vocal critic against the war in Iraq, Hiltzik said supporting the troops who are fighting there is important to the actor.
Not to get too political but I feel that MOST, if not ALL, Americans (who are against the war) STILL and ALWAYS HAVE supported thye troops. Th right wing conservatives and religious fanatics make us out to be unpatriotic and unAmerican. Kind gestures like this, from Alec Baldwin, and other people like him show that we can agree to disagree yet continue to be human.
