Thank you so very much for keeping all of us
in your thoughts. Myself and all of my
Soldiers enjoyed all of the snacks, sundries
and squirt guns. It is great to see a grown
man sneaking up on his buddy to "get" him
and having a great laugh, especially in this
environment. It means so much to us all to
know that people back home care, think of,
and respect the sacrifices made here each
day by these men and women. Thank you again,
from all of the "Tomahawk" Soldiers.
Signed,
SFC Michael J. Land

To
all those who volunteered,
My name is SFC Damian Randolph and I am the
Platoon Sergeant for the Tactical Unmanned
Air System platoon that was adopted by your
organization. First I would like to say
thank you for your support. We received your
boxes with the 4th of July gifts. I shared
the gift bags with the soldiers in my
platoon (25 of us) and then the remaining
gift bags were shared with other platoons
here at FOB Warhorse. Everyone was so
excited to receive these gifts and you can
imagine how long it took them to fill the
water guns and start messing around. Some
were filled with water and others with
lemonade, it was a blast and it was great to
see them relax and have fun.
Again I thank you for your support, rest
assured these gifts did put a smile on
everyone's face. They began to thank me and
I reminded them to read the cards enclosed
and to take the time to send an email or
letter to your organization; I am merely a
messenger and do not deserve the thanks. For
all the time you and your organization have
taken out of your personal schedules to
support our troops, I personally salute you!
"Let Freedom Reign"!!

To the Operation Support Our Troops
Volunteers,
Our unit, 1st Battalion, 37th Field
Artillery, out of Fort Lewis, just received
a shipment of your goodie bags. The squirt
guns and neckerchiefs were just awesome as
were the snacks and the thought. It is nice
to know that there are great Americans out
there who support us. Please convey to all
who helped a big thank you from all of us in
the "Red Lion" Battalion.

We
had an incredible pack out for our 4th of July project and can't
thank all of our volunteers enough for their time and talent! We
began packing the "birthday" bags at 10:00 a.m. and finished up
and sent approximately 200 boxes to the post office by 1:00 p.m.
We reached our goal of adopting 2,500 Troops and then some -- we
sent 4th of July "sparkle" to 2,673 Troops!!
For all of our hard
work, Blaine and Diane Anderson rewarded us with strawberry
shortcake. What a special treat and such a taste of
Summer! Thank you, Blaine and Diane, not only for the
shortcake but for the continued use of your wonderful barn!
Every pack out, we have
volunteers who really go the extra mile and this time we would
like to acknowledge the efforts of Donna Watts. Donna dove
in with incredibly short notice and gave up the last four weeks
of her life to make sure this was a successful pack out.
She was never too busy to run an errand on OSOT's behalf or give
up her time to do what was needed to have everything ready to go
on pack day! Thank you so much, Donna! You truly
represent the best of our Country and her Citizens!
As always, OSOT wants to acknowledge and
thank the corporations and people who continue to help us with
donations.
