Marine Corps Community Services(Please help Marines, Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen)

I want to thank each and every one for their support of my fellow Marines, Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen who have shown what patriotism and heroism is all about.

Semper Fi, Kelly

A FREEPER NEEDS OUR HELP!

BTW, I want to inform everyone who doesn't already know this; that mail is the best morale booster for troops overseas.

So if you haven't already "adopted" a service man or woman who is serving overseas please don't hesitate to do so.

I guarantee that the only person who will feel better than the recipient of your mail is you!

Semper Fi,
Kelly

I completely agree with everything you said. I get giddy buying them little snacks and goodies and personal items to stuff in their care packages. And I cannot tell you how much it made my day to have them write back - something I never expected (because I just assumed they were busy) :)

Well as one who has been a combat Marine, I cannot tell you how much a simple letter uplifts the morale of someone in combat. Being thousands of miles away from home and in combat can be a very lonely experience. And for you to take the time and expense to send gifts is very much appreciated. God bless you!

Thank you and all who have supported the troops.

Semper Fi,
Kelly
