" I wanted to thank you for the care package. The other airmen and soldiers I shared the package with are exceedingly grateful for your kind gesture. Although we are always in our loved one's thoughts it is refreshing to know we grace the minds of the general public also. Being away from my 4-year-old son and wife of 7 years is difficult to say the least over the holidays, but that sting is happily blunted by knowing that good people like yourselves care. I hope this letter finds you all well. Rest well knowing we are always on guard. Thank you!"
