Greetings: My name is TSgt Jake [ ] and I’m currently deployed as an Active Duty Air Force service member in [ ] Africa and am writing to express my gratitude towards the Support Our Troops distribution center team and Ms. [ ]! The care goods that you sent me with snacks and coffee was really appreciated and such a kind gesture! I shared with the 21 members within our flight who helped quickly devour all the goodies, haha;) I’ve included the below information in response to the note within the package that you requested a response on.
If your logistics and resources permit, I’m certain that the others within our flight would also appreciate a care package if it can be supported with coffee, jerky, nuts and snacks. If not, we understand and are all thankful for the purposeful work that you provide for us and the others we serve alongside downrange. The letters and care packages mean A LOT and motivate us to continue serving the people of our great nation!
~~ Jake [ ]

NEW YORK, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES., (January 1, 2026): Office of the Chief, Army Reserve - Hundreds of thousands of individuals celebrate the beginning of 2026 as confetti falls from the sky in Times Square, New York. Following the fireworks, New Year's Eve attendees watched a 4-minute montage commemorating the history of the United States and watched the America 250 Ball drop.
