No one deserves our thanks more than the brave men and women who serve in our Armed Forces. That’s why Slim Jim and WWE are joining forces to pay Tribute to the Troops. You can do your part by saying "thank you" with an e-mail or a letter to a member of the U.S. Military, or by helping Slim Jim donate snacks. Buy two Slim Jims today, and Slim Jim will donate one back to the troops. The eighth annual WWE Tribute to the Troops holiday special featured Superstars from both Raw and SmackDown, along with appearances by special celebrity guests such as Sean "Diddy" Combs' Diddy-Dirty Money, King of Comedy Cedric the Entertainer, The View's Sherri Shepherd, Miss USA Rima Fakih and many others. Check out exclusive photos, videos and more from the most patriotic show of the year.
