Letters

In coming over here, I learned about how generous and supportive people are. My church from back home prays for me every day and freshmen from my high school have sent care packages. I wish every service member over here could get support like that. I'm stationed in a fairly quiet section of Iraq, but I have traveled to other bases where Soldiers go out on missions almost every day. Those are the ones who need the most support, and sometimes I feel a little guilty that I have it pretty easy compared to them. I sincerely hope that they can return safe and whole in mind, body, and spirit. ~~Christopher ------, SPC / Army, Dolton, Ill.
