A perfect gift for Hernando military families

SPRING HILL — Fred Glass spent much of last week filling out a list of items he felt might keep a dozen or so young children happy and content for a few hours while their moms were away. Included on the list were toys, games, movies, candy, potato chips, soft drinks and, of course, pizza.
However, once the youngsters arrived, Glass quickly realized the only thing they really needed they brought themselves.
"All kids need to have fun are other kids," Glass said Saturday as he watched three young boys chase after each other in the parish hall of St. Frances Cabrini Catholic Church. "It doesn't get much simpler than that."
The party, which was organized by the Hernando County Sheriff's Office's community outreach group known as Cops Offering Military Brides Assistance through Teamwork (COMBAT) as well as the church's Home Front Hernando program for military families, was intended to allow wives of local the 244th Aviation National Guard Regiment in Brooksville deployed in Iraq to have a free day in order to do some Christmas shopping.
