What a wonderful idea !!
THE SIGN
This is pretty neat.....(30 second video)... Have you ever seen one of our military walking past you and wanted to convey to them your thanks, but weren't sure how, or it felt awkward?

Recently, a gentleman from Seattle created a gesture which could be used to express your thanks and has started a movement to get the word out..

Please everybody take just a moment to watch..... The Gratitude Campaign...and then forward it to your friends! THEN START USING THE SIGN.

That's a nice video, I appreciate all who choose to serve our country. Bryan (ATIS) Thank-You for your service to our Country.

I used to feel awkward thanking my fellow American who is in uniform but after realizing I thank everyone who does even the most simple task for me it became apparent it was my DUTY to say Thank-You.

Nice video.

I still find it hard to be thanked. I have been thanked a few times and it always feels weird. Its hard to think of myself in the same group as the WWII, Korean and Vietnam veterans....I guess part of it is their stories are documented history and mine are 30 second clips on the evening news.
