The Washington Redskins are one of the biggest supporters of the U.S. Armed Forces, as are their alumni.
Former Redskins guard Derrick Dockery is an example of the special bond the team and the military share, as Dockery along with his wife, Emma, created Yellow Ribbons United [YRU]. YRU is an organization that's main goal is to give the military and their families as much support as humanly possible.
