ServiceCharms Sterling Silver and Enamel Heart Charm

Description

Heart Charm from the ServiceCharms collection. Show your love and support for the special serviceman or woman in your life. A portion of the proceeds of every ServiceCharm sold is donated to the Fisher House Foundation. The blue star motif, first used in WWI, was popular in WWII. The flags were not widely used for several years. Military families are, again, embracing blue star flags (also called, Service flags) as an expression of pride. By displaying these special flags, families are letting others know they have a loved one actively serving in the military. Seeing this special flag encourages others to support this family – one family member may serve, but the heart of his or her loved ones goes with each soldier. Each blue star represents a loved one actively serving. Two blue stars indicate two loved ones serving. A gold star covers the blue star for a soldier who is killed in action or dies while serving.
