Hugs for Troops

Dear Sir or Madam,

Greetings from sunny Afghanistan! The weather is getting cooler—it’s now in the 90’s!! Some of us are getting ready to return home, as well. I am one of those. My replacement will be Ch. Chris W..

Thank you so much for your support during my six months in Afghanistan. You have helped a tremendous amount of Airmen feel at home while far away from home!

I have enclosed some pictures of some of our volunteers and some of the 139 boxes we’ve received over the last two months! Thank you so much for all that you sent to our Airmen here at Kandahar. We have upwards of 50+ Airmen of all ranks come through The Loft to take advantage of the bits of home that you have sent for their use. The Loft is a place of relaxing, friending, sharing, and being, and that is in large part due to YOUR efforts!

Thank you again for your dedication, hard work, and generosity.

God bless,

ChapS
