International Waters, 3-10-2017: Dear Support Our Troops, My team and I are with an F-18 squadron, VFA-137 and are currently deployed aboard the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson. We received a care package today that absolutely made the day for 11 sailors in my shop. For the majority of those sailors this was their first deployment, and seeing their faces light up, was priceless. Your package arrived at just the right time, and truly lifted the spirits of some tired and hardworking sailors. The letters included in the package brought tears to our eyes, and are now taped to our office wall, bringing color to an otherwise drab work space. Thank you so much for all you do. Please keep up the good fight on the home front. Thank you~!

International Waters, 1-21-2017 Heather at SOT: Good evening. We just started our deployment and I received a care package from Support Our Troops today. I am extremely thankful for your generosity and support. I took a picture of what you have sent to us on my phone. I will send it out when we have service again at our next port visit.
The items you sent were just what we needed! Please continue sending the items to other troops deployed in your care packages.
We look forward to your continued support! Have a great day!

SW Asia, December 26, 2016 - Dear SOT team, We received your tokens of appreciation and as an entire team felt the love each and every person put into creating it. After reading through every card and heart felt note we made it our mission to pull every soldier in eye sight to take a picture. Unfortunately there were only for in eye sight so we made sure to grab every civilian as well. So on behalf of the Automated Information Management (AIM) Team we thank you from the bottom of our heart. I can only hope the attached picture conveys the many thanks we have for your acts of kindness.
v/r SFC GABRIEL ----, USARMY HQDA

Helmand Province Afghanistan, December 25, 2016
Thank you Americans from the 3-320th Field Artillery Command Team stationed in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. We received your "unit care package" on Kandahar Air Field and could not have been more excited and blessed with the continued support we get from the community and dedicated Patriots like yourself. Because of you every Soldier on base, to include our German Partners, was able to get a least one gift. As we continue to engage in America’s longest war it is the support from home that keeps the mission going. Thank you all for what you do to support us.
We have attached several photos from our Christmas morning events.v/r LTC Bryan ----- (OF-4), FA
