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.
Hello, my name is Sgt ------ and I am on my second tour in Iraq. I just wanted to take some time to thank you for your support and to let you know that it does mean a lot to the troops. You guys have no clue how proud we feel when we go on leave and we get the types of welcomes that you give us. You can't beat that and once again thank you. ~~------SGT/Army, Fort Bragg, Calif.
I recently have been PCS to Lakenheath, England. I miss my wife. unfortunatly passports take forever. But I'm proud of what I do and stand for. I miss my family and friends, but for my country to me it's a small sacrifice. I miss and love all of you back home. ~~A1C , Tom --------,E-3 AF, Baltimore, Md.
Wow. Thank you all so much for your support. I personally am not in the desert right now but a lot of my friends are there or on their way. You all are great and make me so proud to serve my country. Thank you so much for all your comments. ~~A1C, Tom ------, E-3 AF, Baltimore, Md.
