We've been having a movie day.
Earlier, we watched "Bruce Almighty"
Now we are watching Rambo.
The Hobbit Hole,
First I would like to say thank you for the support that you have shown to the Infantry troops. The practicality of the gift packages is by far that of the most sense anything has made to me since I've been in this country. I wish I could take a picture of every Joe's face when they receive your package. I would have to say that, hands down, it is the highlight of their deployment.
I am sure you have heard from quite a few Bravo Company 3-156INF soldiers. My stories are the same as theirs: We've detained multiple "bad guys", kicked in doors, searched lots of houses, been shot at(small arms & sniper), received blasts from IED's, had RPG's fired at us, killed Iraqi's(civilian & terrorists), lost friends on the battlefield, and have friends recovering in hospitals. All of our stories are the same because we've been through it together. When my guys receive their packages from you, it seems as though all the troubles in the world are gone, their faces light up like kids on Christmas Day. It is completely spectacular how you make them feel. And of course like all Infantrymen, they have to show their new "toys" off to each other, and explain, in detail, how they are going to use it.
Thank you for what you have done for my troops.
