Thank you: "It is like Christmas when we open your packages"

Location Undisclosed, August 25, 2018:  Good Day or Night, I would like to take a few minutes of your time to let you know that we appreciate your support from home. We enjoy every care package that arrives to us. It is like Christmas when we open your packages and see the goodies that we at times do not have the privilege to buy/get in our area operation. In the upcoming days we will try our best to upload/send pictures of us receiving, opening, and enjoying your packages. Keep them coming please! 
Thank You.  SSG Edgar [ ], 12th Missile Defense Battery

For 11 weeks, Marine Corps Maj. Michael Lippert, an F-35B test pilot, and three British pilots will test the performance of the F-35B Lightning II on the deck of the HMS Queen Elizabeth, the United Kingdom’s newest and largest aircraft carrier. Lippert was selected to be a part of this mission based off his position as the Marine Corps’ F-35B ship suitability project officer and his previous shipboard operational experience as a Harrier pilot.
