Yes.
Another very significant organization that supported the troops was the Salvation Army. Though today, we see much less of them than in the past, the Salvation Army was a major player in providing hot food and rest stations for the troops, both at the front and at home...
Their services and sacrifices made by the S.A. meant a great deal to the troops overseas. The Salvation Army people were right there at the front, often risking their own lives, in rather poor conditions to cook and provide comfort.
