May 19, 2009 Greetings from Camp Bucca Chapel, I am writing to thank you for your generous support of the service members and civilian contractors stationed here on Cammp Bucca. The items generously donated by you and other like-minded invididuals bring smiles to the recipients here. Your packages, mailed on 10 April, '09, arrived at the Chapel today and are being made available to the individuals stationed here. Even something as simple as a pack of gum or a piece of their favorite candy can remind a person of what life is like Stateside and who they are over here serving. The various food and hygiene items included in the packages help supplement what the service members were able to bring with them and sometimes can't buy at the Post Store due to the lengthy supply lines and requisition times. Be assured that your package did reach the Chapel in goodo condition and will be used to benefit all who work in support of Camp Bucca. Every box delivered to the Chapel is opened, sorted and made available to any who come to the Chapel asking foir items from home. Often times Unit Chaplains will take boxes of these items down to distribute amongst the service members during their shifts as a quick pick-me-upfromhome. Thank you for your willingness to support the troops while they serve the people of the United States in any region of the globe to which they are called. I will be returning home soon and I thank you for all the support that you have given to the Armed Forces at Camp Bucca, Iraq. Chaplain Lt. David M. Todd will be assuming operation of the wonderful support that you have provided us. Again, thank you for your support and God Bless. In Deepest Appreciation, Ken Bellinger Chaplain Lt. Col. Headquarters 42nd Military Police Brigade BDE/Camp Bucca
