Red Friday is a growing movement in the United States to get everyone to wear Red on Fridays in support of our troops. The movement started from a simple email:

"The Americans who support our troops are the silent majority. We are not organized to reflect who we are, or to reflect what our opinions are. Many Americans, like yourself, would like to start a grassroots movement using the membership of the Special Operations Association, and the Special Forces Associations, and all their friends, simply, to recognize that Americans support our troops.

Our idea of showing our solidarity and support for our troops is- starting Friday, and continuing on each and every Friday, until this is over, that every red-blooded American who supports our young men and women, WEAR SOMETHING RED! Word of mouth, press, TV- lets see if we can make the United States, on any given Friday, a sea of red much like a home football game at a University.

If every one of our memberships share this with other acquaintances, fellow workers, friends, and neighbors, I guarantee that it will not be long before the USA will be covered in RED- and make our troops know there are many people thinking of their well-being. You will feel better all day Friday when you wear Red!

Let's get the word out and lead by example; wear RED on Fridays.

Send this out to everyone on your email list; hopefully, most of you will forward this to everyone you know!! Wear Red on Fridays!!"

If you or someone you know has a relative in the army, navy, marines, air force, or national guard, get the word out! A Support Our Troops Yellow Ribbon Logo is even available now. Wear Red on Friday!
