I would like to say a heartfelt thank you for your service to your country! Freedom is not free; it's the members of our military (like you) who are out there who insure that this country remains the best country in the world.

You are a genuine hero, voluntarily being in Iraq, braving the 120 degree heat, being away from your family, risking your lives, who are to be thanked. THANK YOU!

Dear DesertDog, Please accept our heartfelt thanks for your service to our country. From what we've read even a shower is a blessing.

Since you've enjoyed care packages from Snippy - post a few of your brothers in arms APOs? and I bet we can set you up with more "goodie" packages! If you get too many you can always share ... right?

Candy, pencils, paper for the kids? Pantyhose for the sand fleas? Make a list!

Colleen, thank you for pinging me or I might not have seen this. I know Karl is just learning and had tried to sign on before but had trouble. So wonderful but I'm afraid I'm late now. :(

WOO-HOO.

BeAllYouCanBe-
Come see your young man we are all so proud of!

SAMWolf - It's Karl, yippee! I know if he had remembered all our freeper names he would have pinged more.

All- I wasn't alone in supporting Karl and want to thank everyone that did.

I wish I would have seen this last night. We'll have to teach him how to ping. LOL!

When you get home Karl we'll teach you all about this place!

How wonderful that you could post on FreeRepublic!

Hi. I am the one who sent the 'fuzzy dice'. Thanks for your letter. Your letter made my day, week, month, and year! I will being telling my grandchildren about that letter.


When I read that the 'fuzzy dice' are in your Humvee, I was thrilled. I am glad my package contained some fun stuff for you.

I will send you an Email to your address you gave me soon.

Be safe.
