I am thankful for everyone's support from DC down to Celebs', and most important my brothers and sisters in harm's way at this very moment. May everyone have a great, wonderous, and safe holiday season. For those in the combat zone Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year. ~~SSG ------, and Family -------, Jason/SSG/Active Army, Candor, N.Y.
I am a soldier in the United States Army stationed in Dexheim, Germany at this moment. It is around the holiday season and being so far away from home right now gets really hard. There are things you take for granted until they are gone. Things as simple as being with family and friends. It's not about the presents anymore... It would just be nice to see my family. I would like to THANK all the SUPPORTERS. It is truly great to know that we are thought about...That alone makes my sacrifice from home and my family worth something... We as a country are in this together and the more support we have the higher we hold our heads and stronger we fight. KEEP SUPPORTING AND WE WILL KEEP FIGHTING. THANK YOU ~~Grant Langenburg/PFC/US ARMY, Wolverine, Mich.
Americans!~ wow..I can't believe the incredible messages I have read so far. First and foremost I would like to thank God for giving me this opportunity to sit here and still leave you all a message. I am currently in Iraq, serving alongside other American Soldiers. I can't begin to express the feelings that come from such support. We appreciate all the letters, and care packages we receive. A simple letter does more than you think! Especially around the holidays. Anyways...I would just like to say thank you and God bless. ~~------,SGT, Army, Camarillo, Calif.
Thank you all for your support. If you did not stand behind us then we would be doing this for nothing. Thank you. ~~Anthony -------/SPC/US Army, Hermon, N.Y.
We work at the largest hospital in the AOR here in Iraq and get shipped several boxes a week of donated items. We box up what we don't use for the patients and forward them to locations that don't have the amenities that we have here. Things such as clean socks, knit hats, candy, books, stationary, etc...that way we know it's going to a soldier in need. We do keep the majority of it for the patients coming through, or the soldiers serving as escorts or guards. ~~TSgt Lee------, Shreveport La
I just want to say thank you to all of you who leave your kind words for us soldiers to read, it really helps and gives us a reason to keep on going. knowing that our fellow Americans appreciate what we do to keep them safe. So...THANK YOU!!! ~~SPC Anthony -------, Vacaville, Ca
Greetings from Iraq! Thanks to all of you for your constant, uplifting support for us. I can't begin to tell you how much the care packages you send help us out and give us that big boost of morale that we all need when things start to get heavy out here. We appreciate all of you, and never forget that we do this willingly for all of you! We are forever in your service! Thanks once again! ~~SPC Beverly ------, Army, Woodbury, NJ
