“I am currently deployed in Syria. I have received a number of care packages during my time on this deployment. I am reaching out because you, or your organization, has graciously taken the time to send us one, or multiple care packages.
First, I want you to know that we greatly appreciate your support. The items you sent were shared with all soldiers deployed on the base where I am stationed. These little things can have a great impact on the morale of a unit, they bring comfort of home and realization that we are supported by people such as yourselves. I cannot thank you enough for your support. It is people like you that make doing this job all worth it. Through your caring and actions, you help show time, and time again, why America is the greatest country in the world. I hope you will continue to show support for future units as they replace us and others around the world.”
