Wiesbaden, Germany July 12, 2018 – I wanted to write and say thank you to your organization for clipping and sending coupons! My family is stationed in Wiesbaden, Germany- and we are able to use them to save at least $40 per grocery trip. Due to the language barrier, I am unable to work... and every penny counts. All of your clipping is very much appreciated! Thank you for the effort- it makes a big difference to my family and I!
~~ Sincerely, Marie -----
Bagdad, May 5, 2018 - Thank you so much for your kind letter and amazing K-9 Warrior care package! The dogs will sure be happy with these goodies! I will disperse to the special forces dogs on the base in Baghdad and veterinarians who travel to other bases to treat special forces dogs in remote places. Receiving mail is always a morale booster on this 9 month deployment.
We only have 6 weeks left till we can head back to Fort Lewis, WA. I sure do miss the mountains, lakes, and trees! I am an Emergency/Trauma Nurse and belong to a Combat Support Hospital. We have not had a lot of trauma patients lately so hopefully it stays that way. The Iraqi election is May 12 and we are staying vigilant in preparation for potential patients. Thank you for keeping us in your thoughts! Bagdad, May 5, 2018 - Thank you so much for your kind letter and amazing K-9 Warrior care package! The dogs will sure be happy with these goodies!

Indian Ocean, Diego Garcia April 3, 2018 - The high cost of calling home and internet use here becomes substantial making it harder to keep in touch with my wife and kids back home. Anything is much appreciated

We are 5 soldiers to a plywood room and have to pay $60 a month for phone home satellite internet. It is only a few gigs a month and sadly the remaining data doesn’t roll over to the next month. If there was any way we could get some help on this is would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for helping out. CPL Marcos ------

Incirlik AB, Turkey, October 15, 2017: Good Morning, I just wanted to know we received the boxes yesterday, and we appreciate the pens, magazines, notebooks and playing cards. It's the little things that make deployment time go by faster. I have attached a couple pictures of some of my unit here.

Persian Gulf, September 8, 2017: I received the care package a few days ago and wanted you and your volunteers to know how excited and happy it made me. It's just so nice to hear my name during mail call, and being able to know that strangers care so much to support us out here. I loved all the snacks, letters, personal items, and other nice things that we just can't get here out on the ship. It really makes me feel like a piece of home is with me during this long deployment.
