Contest is Over
- Contest was judged on April 21, 2008
- Rewards: Gold: 300, Silver: 100, Bronze: 50, Honorable mention: 13 people
- Final notes: Thank you all for entering my military contest. This was by far one of the hardest contests that I ever had to judge. There were so many excellent poems submitted. I went through a whole box of kleenex while I was judging this contest too. I chose the three trophy winners because the poems seemed to talk directly to me. The honorable mentions are in no particular order, but they could have won trophies in almost any other contest. Please remember to keep the service men and women in your thoughts and in your prayers every day. God bless you all.
