Email from BAGRAM, Afghanistan!
Hi Patty...
Wanted to let you know the game [Nintendo Wii] arrived today, there are a lot of happy young soldiers here that are ready to play.
Apparently it comes with 5 differant games to play. Ill let them figure it out and relay any request they have to you. I wouldnt know the top from the bottom. Never was a game player myself. Except for chess and a couple of other board games. They tell me Im a dinosaur, but what does anyone under 50 know.
Their a good group of kids,and Im glad they have something to occupy what little free time thay have. It gets pretty montonous around here somtimes. Thank all the group for us what you do is very kind. I wish I could tell you whats going on here but Im not allowed to go into much detail.Let me say this though, we have a great army, and if leaders in washington will let us we can finish this job.
well I’ll close for now God Bless all of you.
Bump and ping.
Another email from BAGRAM, Afghanistan!
Hi Patty ...
this is the third email I have tried to send I hope this one makes it. The service here the last week has been terrible. Emails to my wife and everyone else have been dropped, are sent back to my draft file. Its this Afghan net service, not very reliable.
The wii is here and the young guys are excited about it, it came with bowling,golf,tennis and baseball, and I think one other game. Ill have to ask them.they said to thank you, they remind me of my kids always wanting to play video games.
