Hello, I just wanted to thank all the students who took the time to put together all these care packages we just received. I’m sure it took hard work and allot of your spare time to pack all these boxes. I’m on my 5th straight deployment that started back in Nov. 2001 in Afghanistan. Currently I’m with HMLA -269 (helicopter squadron) over in Iraq. Time goes by real slow but we all know everyday there is a job to do. Are current deployment ends at the end of Sept. and we all can’t wait to finally go home. It is always nice to receive something from caring people who believe in what were doing out here. From the bottom of my heart I want to take the time as you all did to say thank you. We really appreciate all your hard work. Robert Mitchell GySgt / United States Marine Corps
