We ordered two of your memorial bracelets last week and they arrived the other day. We're very happy with them. We didnt know anyone serving, but we wanted to show our respects to those who have died, so your random memorial bracelets were perfect. Thank you for what you're doing and for giving us a chance to memorialize these two brave soldiers. Russel and Tina Otero Oklahoma City,

Dear HeroBracelets, Want to thank you for the beautiful bracelets. We’ve been looking for custom Deployed Marine bracelets for a while and found several websites that offered something similar, but we thought the price was too high or the bracelets were flimsy. Then we found HeroBracelets and knew this was the right place. The bracelets were better looking and a better price than others we found. AND it’s really nice to know we’re helping to support the Fallen Heroes Fund. Dont know how you c...

I received my Hero Bracelets in the mail this afternoon and was totally unprepared for the impact they were going to have on me. I spent the next two hours on the computer reading first about the soldiers on my bracelets, and then about so many others that have been lost. It has been an incredibly humbling evening for me, and one that has reinforced my undying gratitude to our service men and women. Thank you for doing your part to help ease the heart ache of the families that have paid a mu...

(Today, we were updating the KIA database from the DOD. Not something we ever look forward to, but something we need to do nonetheless. Then, when opening email this morning, we came across this letter from a HeroBracelets wearer from Florida. It brought into perspective what we're doing here and what can happen when people decide to do something kind for a stranger. It really made our day and we're proud to share it with you.) -------------------------- I recently received an email about the...

I want to thank you for my new custom Soldier Bracelets. They look great and fit perfectly. My longtime friend, Aaron Mitchell is in the Army and currently in Iraq. I ordered your bracelets for his parents, his siter and for me. They were all pretty thrilled to get them and we’ve all vowed to wear them till he comes home. We’re thinking of making a chain of all the bracelets for him when he gets home. I get to talk to email him once in a while and told him about us all wearing his name on our...

I lost a friend back in college when he was killed in Vietnam. I haven't forgotten about him and I saw a news story on Hero Bracelets. I decided to order a memorial bracelet from you to honor him. I'm very happy I did Allie Hux

I found this on the www.strykernews.com website today. Mike Gilbert of The News Tribune is allowing us to re-print this entry from his site in the hope that the rightful owner of this bracelet can be located. Mike's email is mike.gilbert@thenewstribune.com. Allie Krizmanich of Raleigh, N.C., is hoping the readers might be able to help. She was in Chicago this week for work and during her off time, went to the beach on the shores of Lake Michigan. There, sticking out of the sand, was one of th...

Dear HeroBracelets, We ordered a dozen of your Army Bracelets last week and they arrived today. I must say, we are all thrilled. My nephew is in the Army and currently serving in Iraq. We all wanted something to remind us of him daily and the Army Bracelets with his name are perfect. I put mine on right out of the package and I plan on wearing it till he comes home. I think he’s got another 4 months before he comes home. We all miss him very much but I have to say, having his Army bracelet on...
