Received the following letter:

Hi Charles!

I pray that this letter finds you blessed. I am writing on behalf of the —–, for the AnySoldier.com program. I enrolled the unit in the program because we have limited necessities here and also to help with morale. I know this letter isn’t much and cannot express how appreciative we are. Your care packages helped with having just what we needed. Everyone was happy and unbelievably surprised! You’ve warmed hearts and brought smiles on a hard-working day. There are those less fortunate and do not receive packages from family and loved ones. With your support, it has made a big difference. We thank you so much. Many blessings to you and your family.

Sincerely,

Received the following card:

Mr. Charles Plemons –

It was nice reading your letter. My roommate is —–. I want to say thank you for writing to us and keeping us up to date on some of the country’s news. Hope you’re having a nice summer. Ours is okay with it being 117-129 degrees and being in Iraq.

Thank you again,

Received the following letter:

Dear Mr. Plemons,

My name is —–, and I am the Garrison Commander here at —–. I am also the AnySoldier sponsor for the U.S. Army personnel both here and at the outlying Forward Operating Bases (FOBs) that are based here. On behalf of the soldiers that you are supporting, I would like to personally thank you for the letter that you sent.

The vast majority of the soldiers that participate in this program work and live at the outlying FOBs, so they may not immediately receive your letter. Although they may not personally make it here to Apache in the immediate future, it is my responsibility to ensure that all AnySoldier correspondence gets to the participants, via their leadership, as quickly as possible. Please know that I will ensure that this happens.

Once again, thank you very much for your involvement in the AnySoldier program. Your support means a great deal to all of us.

Sincerely,
