A Challenge To Help!

This was a message sent by Carol on the Soldiers Angels' TLC Team, to all angels: "I think we could shower this man with letters and cards and he would be very happy to know not only that we support him-but that his troops care about him..." In response to the letter below she received:

"MY NAME IS NOT IMPRORTANT BUT MY SQUAD LEADER CPL SMITH IS A MAN WHO ALWAY THINKS OF US FIRST.
HE EATS LAST IF THERE IS ANYTHING LEFT.HE ALWAY SLEEPS LAST AND IS THE FIRST UP IN THE MORNING. HE ALWAYS PUTS US FIRST.
I HAVE NOTICED RECENTLY HE NEVER GETS MAIL. I ASKED HIM WHY AND HE SAID, "MOST OF MY FAMILY CAN'T STAND ME CUS IM IN THE ARMY THEY DONT SUPPORT WHAT WE DO...BUT THAT’S OK."
I WOULD LOVE TO SEE HIM GET SOMETHING FOR ONCE. HE ALWAYS GIVES TO EVERYONE ELSE AND NEVER GET (NEVER ASKS) A THING FROM ANY ONE. JUST A LETTER WOULD BE FINE.
HE KNOWS I'M SENDING THIS BUT HE DOESN'T BELEIVE THERE WILL BE A REPLY."

If you would like to help you can email Carol. If you are not a Soldiers Angel already but would like to get involved in helping soldiers like the one above, it's quick and easy to get started! Visit the Soldiers Angels website to find out more, become an angel and adopt a soldier.

As an aside, I can tell you first hand that receiving mail is a very important thing for a deployed soldier. Mail Call has a way of lifting up your spirits when you are down, its even better when it’s from someone you love. Please help out this soldier, and join us in an effort to flood him with mail and prove to him that there are many people back home that are supporting him and his mission.

Thank you.
