CALLOWAY COUNTY, KY (KFVS) - KFVS12 and The Heartland's CW are once again airing holiday military greetings in special public service announcements that are scheduled to run through New Year's Day.

We think it's important to remember those men and women who are away from their homes so that we can feel safer in ours. The greetings consist of personal messages from service persons stationed at military locations around the world whose families live in the KFVS12 viewing area.

This is a message from Murray native Jay Todd, an Army Major stationed in Afghanistan.
