I checked this out on snopes.com and it is true. It was updated

Subject: Sears - Christmas shopping has already started
I know I needed this reminder since Sears isn't always my
first choice.
Amazing when you think of how long the war has lasted and
they haven't
withdrawn from their commitment. Could we each buy at least
one thing at
Sears this year?
How does Sears treat its employees who are called up for
military duty? By
law, they are required to hold their jobs open and
available, but nothing
more. Usually, people take a big pay cut and lose benefits
as a result of
being called up.
Sears is voluntarily paying the difference in salaries and
maintaining all
benefits, including medical insurance and bonus programs,
for all called
up reservist employees for up to two years.
I submit that Sears is an exemplary corporate citizen and
should be
recognized for its contribution. I suggest we all shop at
Sears, and be
sure to find a manager to tell them why we are there so the
company gets
the positive reinforcement it well deserves.
Pass it on.
Decided to check this before I sent it forward. So I sent
the following
e-mail to the Sears Customer Service Department:
I received this e-mail and I would like to know if it is
true. If it is,
the Internet may have just become one very good source of
advertisement
for your company. I know I would go out of my way to buy
products from
Sears instead of another store for a like item, even if
it's cheaper at
that store.
This is their answer to my e-mail:
Dear Customer:
Thank you for contacting Sears.The information is factual.
We appreciate
your positive feedback.
Sears regards service to our country as one of greatest
sacrifices our
young men and women can make. We are happy to do our part
to lessen the
burden they bear at this time.

Please pass this on to all your friends. Sears needs to be
recognized for
this outstanding contribution and we need to show them as
Americans, we do
appreciate what they are doing for our military!!!
