Quotes From Our Troops
Feb 20, 2008 – “These bags were the best. Most people, like myself, didn’t receive a valentines from anywhere else. So these were real special, the workmanship, second to none. Thank you very much for including my unit and myself on your list.”Carolyn
Feb 23, 2008 – “We work alongside our NATO counterparts in Afghanistan, and it always comes as a surprise to them how much support the US troops receive from home. I believe that they are envious of the fact that complete strangers are willing to work so hard to make us feel so appreciated. Your organization shows the kindness and generosity that makes America such a unique and wonderful place.”Kabul, Afghanistan
"We were overwhelmed by the support received. You sent so many stockings over here that everybody in my command received a stocking, then any extras were passed out at the Christmas dinner. The stockings were gone in no time. People kept saying thank you and were very excited to receive a stocking. You don't know the kind of impact you had on us over here. We can never thank you enough for making our Christmas wonderful." -- Steve H.
