Persian Gulf, September 8, 2017: I received the care package a few days ago and wanted you and your volunteers to know how excited and happy it made me. It's just so nice to hear my name during mail call, and being able to know that strangers care so much to support us out here. I loved all the snacks, letters, personal items, and other nice things that we just can't get here out on the ship. It really makes me feel like a piece of home is with me during this long deployment.

Kuwait, July 28, 2017: Support Our Troops Team and Janet, I wanted to let you know that we've received tremendous support from your team in the form of care packages over the last several weeks. We feel truly blessed here. Your efforts have made an impact on each and every one of our team members, Military and Civilian, and it has brought a touch of home to them.
On behalf of our team, a huge thank you and we can't say enough how much it means to us. All the packages made it here safely and everything is being put to good use! We love it. We also really enjoyed all the personal notes that are within the packages and are writing back to those who wrote/crafted them.

Once we get a printed version of the photos, we will mail your way with a token to express our sincere thanks.
